Absolutely amazing

Dan and his wife went over the top for my fiance and I. I hired Dan to play 2 songs as part of my proposal and he played (and sang) them incredibly well. He even incorporated a third song that was meaningful to his marriage, and brought his wife along for the occasion as well. I couldn't have asked for a better musician, and people, to be part of our special moment. Thank you both for everything!

Booking information

Price range: Starts at $100

What to expect

I have an extensive knowledge of songs from any era or style of music. I generally like to find out what the client desires specifically and encourage the audience to be involved. Events that require live music in the background (cocktail party) is also a specialty. I really try to add personality to the music and always respect client wishes. Professional appearance and attitude is foremost.

About

I totally 'get' that live music can make an event a special one. I'm not the kind of act that has a list of songs I play at every event and expect everyone to enjoy it. I listen to and work with clients to provide what they and their guests will enjoy hearing. I have a knack for finding out what the client is looking (or listening) for and giving that sound something unique and memorable or just make some good old music everyone will enjoy . I've been a live performer for decades and currently am the guitarist with a local big band. Grew up in rock's 'hey-day' era and have a soft spot for all those great sixties and seventies tunes. Being a true lover of the infectious nature of music, I really dig playing songs from all eras....artists like Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Van Morrison. Soul, rock, folk, jazz, blues, country.

Additional booking notes

I have all the gear necessary for any type of gathering...intimate or huge.
