Shaun Dougherty

I’m Shaun Dougherty, a versatile guitarist blending Jazz, Blues, Pop, Rock, and Latin influences into seamless solo instrumental music. Based in Austin, I bring a fresh and laid-back sound to cocktail bars, speakeasies, restaurants, and brunch spots—creating the perfect background music that enhances the atmosphere without interrupting conversation. I compose and record all my own backing tracks, bringing a personal touch to every performance. Over the years, I’ve performed in a wide variety of settings across cities like Boston, Wilmington (DE), Philadelphia (PA), New York City, Las Vegas, and now Austin, Texas. My repertoire includes a diverse range of covers, including "Dream a Little Dream," "Seven Nation Army," "Wicked Games," "Pink Pony Club," "Bad Guy," and "No Ordinary Love," all reimagined with my signature jazzy twist.
