René Le Feuvre

I’ve been performing at weddings for nearly 10 years and now play around 20–30 each year. I don’t overbook on purpose — it gives me the space to stay fresh and also focus on touring my original music.

I do, but it’s less of a fixed setlist and more of a big song bank — around 300 songs. I pick and choose what to play on the day based on the crowd, the vibe, and what feels right in the moment.

My experience performing is pretty extensive — and honestly, a bit rare. I started out busking and since then I’ve played just about everything: cruise ships, 5-star island resorts, country pubs, intimate wedding proposals, funerals, stadiums in Vegas, international tours, TV performances, and of course, a whole lot of weddings. I taught myself guitar from YouTube and by ear, and at 27, it already feels like I’ve lived a lifetime doing this! I am very gratful to have the opportunity to play music for a living.

I grew up on honest storytelling and timeless music — The Eagles, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, CCR, Bob Dylan, and Cat Stevens were always playing in the background. These days, I’m drawn to artists like Ben Howard, Bon Iver, Banks, Eminem, Pink Floyd, and RÜFÜS DU SOL. When I was younger, Ed Sheeran was on repeat — and my live show is probably most similar to his, especially with how I use a loop pedal to build beats on the fly. My taste is super specific (like everyone’s), but if there’s one common thread, it’s authenticity. That’s what draws me in — and what I try to reflect in my own music too.
