About Grant Swift
Please read the following before sending an inquiry: My minimum for a weekend event in the NYC Metro area is $1100. Thank you! With three decades of experience comprising “classical” training, as well as improvisational live performance, Grant has become one of the most sought-after independent performers in the United States, playing nearly 200 events per year. He brings his passion for music to every kind of clientele. He has performed for numerous Fortune 500 companies, a former US President, and had the honor of opening for The Who. But, no event is too small! In fact, 30% of Grant's gigs last year were events held by private individuals with less than 60 guests. Whether he’s “live looping” as a One Man Band, or performing as a singing guitarist, each of Grant's song arrangements is a product of the irreducible moment in which they are presented - an essential quality of live music that makes every event unique.

Grant was amazing! Incredible musician and a great guy. He read the room perfectly and adjusted as the mood changed from chilled chatting to dancing. Everyone loved him and had a great time. Would hire him again and recommend to anyone. Perfect
Grant was fantastic! Everyone enjoyed his singing and music. He was perfect for our backyard party. I will def use him again!
Grant came to our home for a party of about 25. He arrived on time and with an assistant to help him “swiftly” set up. He performed his first set with wonderful background music to the cocktails and food. Thought the night he played songs we requested, many just as good as the original. He was welcoming to have guests join him “on stage,” and very open to requests, even figuring some out on the spot. Throughout the evening everyone was dancing and singing along. I would recommend him for your next event without hesitation.
Grant was amazing! His music repertoire includes something for everyone. The guests loved him! I would highly recommend him!!
He arrived early.Was very congenial.He started his show on time and all were happy with his performance.
Grant recently performed at my wife’s 50th Birthday party. Grant is easy going and a pleasure to work with while preparing for the party. He spent time to collaborate on a music play list and any special request. At the party he shines with talent and professionalism. Our guests truly enjoyed listening to Grant and he help the evening flow into a really memorable night. Thankfully, I will not have to research entertainment for our next party, provided that Grant is available- he will be our go to…make him yours too!
Grant was an ABSOLUTE pleasure to work with, from begging to end. He recently performed at my husband's 60th birthday party at home. He is very talented and kind. He was loved by everyone. He definitely made the celebration more special! Would highly recommend him. We would definitely love to have him perform at a future engagement. A+++++
I found Grant on thumbtack while looking for a ‘minstrel’ to play some of our songs while proposing. I had put a ton of planning into the idea of how I wanted to propose, I wanted to bring my fiancée to where we had our first kiss and have the same music playing, “stand by me”. Grant was quick to reply and very professional throughout. He actually made me more calm and successful on the big day. Grqnt has a genuine talent and love for his work, this was self evident. I’ve worked in the music industry and could tell right away that Grant was the right fit. He also has great falsetto! Well done Grant! She said yes, thank you!
I contracted Grant for a 60th surprise birthday party, the way he organized everything before the even was great, we were on phone calls for days, he made sure he knew all the details. The day of the performance, he did better than spect, he nail it! He knows how to read the crowd. Everyone loved his job, it was an amazing night. Thank you very much Grant!
