So excited to be joining Lucas Sanchez for his acoustic duo set in Benicia, California.

Born and raised in the musically-rich San Francisco Bay Area, Lucas Sanchez is an up and coming guitarist, singer/songwriter, and composer, whose music is assured to grab your attention. His music is a carefully crafted cocktail of sounds that draw inspiration from rock, blues, funk, pop, jazz, and more. Lucas’s guitar work is energetic and distinct with underlying tones of Hendrix, Clapton, Satriani, and Stevie Ray Vaughan; while his songwriting is influenced by masters like Stevie Wonder, John Mayer, Sting, and Dave Matthews.  

      Lucas plays routinely around the Bay Area as a solo artist and a member of the band Sugar Bear. Some of the venues Lucas has played at in the past include Blacksmith Square, Wente Vineyards, Freight and Salvage, Yoshi's, Las Positas College (for TEDxLivermore), DNA Lounge, Hotel Utah, Darcie Kent Vineyards, and the Alameda County Fair; just to name a few.  

      Lucas’ educational background started when he began attending Las Positas College (which he later earned his music degree from) where he studied classical music, jazz, voice, guitar, and composition. After his time as Las Positas, he earned a scholarship to attend the California Jazz Conservatory in Berkeley where he spent his time studying various forms of jazz improvisation and composition.
