Amazing performance, we danced to every song!

Darel was fantastic. We had a garage party at our cottage and he was very professional. He had all the right gear to put on a great show. We all knew every song and danced the afternoon away. We already booked him again for July! It was the most fun we’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend him!

What to expect

What I deliver are both songs you've forgotten about and your most favourite songs played the way you remember them. I love watching my crowd's faces light up when I strike the first few notes of a song that is familiar to them. These are the little things that make it all worth it!

About

Hi! I'm Darel. I love entertaining and sharing my gift of music with all ages! I started my musical journey at the age of 8 when I started violin lessons. By the age of 16 I began to teach myself the guitar and the rest is pretty much history. I have been playing weddings, birthdays, retirements, corporate events, bars, and just for people in general for about 25 years. My arsenal of instruments includes the guitar, the violin (fiddle), mandolin, harmonica, and of course my god given instrument, my voice. The types of events I have played have been very diverse, I've played weddings and then I've also played 80th birthday parties! Every gig is different and I like to custom taylor my song selection with the needs of the customer. My large setlist, diversity in types of music and my collection of instruments enables me to do that. I play many types of music as well.. Classical, Rock, Metal, Folk, and Celtic. I've got a little something for everyone!

Additional booking notes

I have all my own equipment including 2 different P.A systems. One for smaller intimate events and one for large events.
