About Dylan Galvin Entertainment | Guitarist for Hire

Elevate your event with a musician who understands that true luxury entertainment complements your vision rather than competing with it. As a Berklee-trained professional mentored by legends like John Mayer and Paul Simon, Dylan Galvin provides a seamless, all-in-one solution that typically requires three separate vendors—roaming acoustic instrumentals for "Old World" elegance, engaging vocals for networking, and a high-energy DJ-style flow to close the night. Trusted by Fortune 500 companies and iconic venues like the Waldorf Astoria, Dylan utilizes a careful approach to intuitively read your room and amplify the energy without ever overpowering the conversation. By eliminating the friction of multiple contracts and providing a flawless, stress-free execution, he ensures that your only responsibility is to enjoy the moment and your guests’ inevitable question: “Where in the world did you find him?”

Dylan Galvin was a fantastic addition to our Fourth of July company party! His guitar playing set the perfect tone for the event—festive, fun, and engaging. Guests really enjoyed his performance, especially when he walked around and interacted with the crowd. Dylan brought great energy and was incredibly professional. We highly recommend him for any event looking for live music with personality and talent!

Dylan Gavin is a must at your next event! He arrived in plenty of time to warm up and set up and even wore a pair of reindeer antlers for our holiday gathering. Everyone was asking "Where did you find the singer?" Dylan Galvin was a wonderful addition to our holiday party, and I highly recommend him to entertain your next event!

Dylan played the perfect set for our venue and was enjoyed by all! We will be using his talent again.

Dylan was a dream to work with! We had him play at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. In meeting with him ahead of time, he was so personable and receptive to our guidelines. He was reasonable/flexible and worked with us to make sure what we wanted was something he could accommodate. I love how he enhanced our event without turning it into a performance or show. His renditions were great (specifically loved Here Comes the Sun instrumental), I loved how they don't sound like typical covers. Plus, at the end of the day, he was a huge hit with our guests so all around a win!

We were so lucky to hire Dylan to perform at our intimate gathering celebrating our 10 year anniversary! He was a joy to work with from the moment we spoke. He was prompt with responses and created the most amazing ambiance for our celebration. From soft background music, to "get on the dancefloor", he nailed it all and knew exactly when to shift the mood. We couldn't have asked for more - thank you Dylan!

Dylan was such a pleasure to work with. He was personable and responsive. I hired him for a corporate event cocktail hour and he showed up with a welcome gift for me which was so thoughtful. Everyone enjoyed his music and voice the most. It was a joy to watch someone who loves what they do! I would recommend him to anyone & definitely hire again.

I searched for days, listening to different musicians and trying to find the perfect one for my wife's 50th birthday party. Dylan hit it out of the park and exceeded all expectations. He was set up ahead of time and ready to play. He played a wide variety of music and took requests from our guests. I had several guests ask where I was able to find such a talented singer. I would highly recommend Dylan for any event and we plan on hiring him again in the future.

Dylan was absolutely fantastic! A great guitarist, singer and wonderful person. He played at my son’s engagement party, and added just the right vibe; everybody so enjoyed his music. He was a pleasure to work with, very accommodating , punctual, professional and even went out of his way to record a special song for us. The party wouldn’t have been the same without him! I would highly recommend him and plan to have him at our next event!
