October 21, 2017We first met and enjoyed Danny and his musical style, like no other, at Irvine Spectrum. It was so good that we canceled entertainment we had already requested for a special party.
We hired Danny to perform at my wife’s birthday on the beach in Dana Point. He turned a really good evening into a GREAT night. We had about 125 guest and we thought the best buffet money could buy. The guest enjoyed the buffet but liked Danny better. Our friends can’t wait till we have another party and he is the Headliner, so to speak.

When looking for a musician who'll make your occasion simply unforgettable, look no further than Danny Maika.
An exceptional singer and guitarist, Danny is a true professional dedicated to not only entertaining your guests, but making your event one you'll be proud of.
From weddings to parties to corporate functions, Danny has a proven track record for making events run smoothly from start to finish. Brides are often thrilled to learn they can count on him for the whole day, from creating a beautiful ambiance at the wedding ceremony, to performing cool jazz and blues at the cocktail hour, to rocking out a full set of favorites at the reception! His friendly, outgoing personality and well-spoken manner make Danny a dynamic presence on stage.
With his acoustic guitar and smooth vocals as his instruments, Danny customizes each and every performance for your occasion. Offering a song list sure to please any audience, Danny offers a repertoire of more 250 hits by more than 40 popular artists (The Beatles to Bob Marley, Jack Johnson to Jason Mraz, to name a few), as well as more than 30 originals.
A true one-man band, Danny enhances his sound by using synthesized drum beats, or 'looped tracks', to add depth and fullness to the music. (He does have access to a full band if desired.) Danny is also known for playing ukulele or harmonica on select songs; his island-inspired rendition of IZ's "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" on the ukulele is a party favorite!
Do you have a favorite song you want to hear? Danny will gladly learn a select song or create a special arrangement especially for your event. He's available for bookings throughout Southern California, and is also willing to travel. You can have confidence that he'll show up on time and be dressed for the part, ready to make your event a memorable one.
