Skyler Lutes
2017-04-29
Skyler Lutes 9pm. No Cover!!
It takes a powerful performer to stand out in music these days, with a surplus of talent and dedication needed as well. There’s a need to have focus, yet appeal across genres and age groups. It’s a rare combination, but such is the case with gifted musician, Skyler Lutes.
He is a troubadour by definition, using his acoustic guitar as the foundation for music that takes in rock and reggae with a decidedly surf or beach vibe. However, there is much more to his sound. He is a multi-faceted performer whose music will bring a smile, whether you catch a solo performance or a full band set
Lutes is a multi-instrumentalist, who plays drums, bass, keys and guitar, and is also heavily involved in production work, “but I really enjoy singing the most,” he said, “as it has the most emotion involved,” In addition to his solo career, he’s also been involved in several notable bands over the years, including Hawaiian group Makua Rothman Band, Riverside-based indie rockers Everything Said, Aquile, from TV’s “The Voice,” and multiple San Diego Music Awards nominees the Defamation League.

It’s no secret that the music biz is tougher than ever. With life offering so many options, only the best music, by the most driven, has a chance at trying to grab the brass ring.

Currently, Day is in the studio, putting the finishing touches on her debut EP. She’s a gifted pop vocalist who doesn’t shy away from hip-hop, R&B and rock influences.
