Welcome to the official website of David Kinney, a South Florida acoustic guitarist who transforms timeless folk‑rock classics into rich, soulful instrumental experiences that feel both familiar and completely new.
From laid‑back happy hours on the water to intimate private gatherings and vibrant “Join the Band” parties, David’s music creates the kind of atmosphere where people relax, connect, and stay just a little longer.
For decades, David has been crafting a signature sound that blends warm acoustic tones, expressive melody lines, and a deep respect for the artists who shaped a generation—names like Jimmy Buffett, the Eagles, Tom Petty, James Taylor, and more. His performances are never just background music; they set the mood, tell a story, and quietly elevate any space into a place guests remember.
Now based in Palm Beach, Florida, David brings a lifetime of musical experience—including appearances with accomplished musicians such as Trey Anastasio of Phish—to restaurants, resorts, private residences, yachts, and special events across the region. Whether he is providing a relaxed soundtrack for sunset cocktails or building energy for a sing‑along finale, his goal is simple: create moments where people feel at ease, engaged, and genuinely entertained.
