About
Soarelle is a classical guitarist for hire in Byron Bay, NSW.
Soarelle is Justin de Candia performing solo, and the name means sunshine. He's spent years on weddings, luxury events and public venues, and the repertoire stretches to match: original material, soundtrack composition, and covers that wander from Under the Milky Way and Golden Brown to Cream, Dreams and Here Comes the Sun. Classical guitar sits in there too. The point isn't volume. It's setting a mood that feels intimate and celebratory at the same time, whether that's a ceremony, a dinner or a corporate night. PA and all equipment come with him. Just keep the spot out of the rain and off direct sun and the sound holds up.

The show
Justin de Candia plays solo under the name Soarelle, and the aim is atmosphere rather than volume. The set moves between original material, soundtrack style pieces and covers, with classical guitar in the mix, so a ceremony, a long dinner and a corporate evening all get something that fits the hour. Years of weddings and luxury events sit behind it, and it shows in the pacing. You get a room that feels intimate and celebratory at once, which is a harder combination than it sounds.
On the day
Soarelle brings the PA and everything else needed to play, so nothing has to be hired in. The one thing worth planning is where he stands. Keep the spot dry and out of direct sun, because both rain and heat will do the sound quality no favours and neither is fixable once the guests are seated. A shaded corner or a covered area is all it takes.
