DaveLovesDonna sings everyone's favorite songs from the last 50 years, focusing on beautiful harmonies, interesting song selection, and engaging the audience in a happy musical experience. We are always upbeat, and we make people happy. We play our popular original songs, when asked, which tell the story of the joys and trials and tribulations of love. We hand out our songlist of a couple hundred songs, and let people request the songs they want to hear. Our music is best described as acoustic rock/folk/blues, music for listening or light dancing--at restaurants, clubs, parties, community events, and festivals. We entertain people of all ages, as background music or center stage.

What to expect from one of our performances: engaging performers who love to sing and play and share the joy with the audience; professional beautiful music and harmonies; music tailored to the setting and audience; attention to volume, so we aren't too loud; fun songs, familiar songs, new songs, old songs. We perform songs for people to listen to as background music, or we can put on a show! We can tell engaging stories in between songs or just play and not interfere with conversations. We play songs to dance to if people are in the mood. We can play everyone's favorite songs or unique songs or original songs, whatever the preference. We can hand out songlists to the audience, so they can make requests, and we make sure we play what people want to hear. We provide excellent balanced sound and lights, if requested. We constantly update our show, based on audience feedback. We add a couple of new songs every month, adding songs people tell us they would like to hear us sing. We interact with the audience in between sets. We are very people oriented, and we strive to make sure everyone is having a good, happy time.
Dave Weber is a lifelong musician, a musician's musician. He is loved for his beautiful voice and his stellar guitar and harmonica work. He makes all of his own background tracks for our shows, playing drums, bass, keyboards, pedal steel, banjo, etc, etc. Donna Delany has been performing with Dave for 4 years now, and she is loved for her singing voice, her spot-on harmonies, and her crowd interaction. People love to watch her. She plays guitar, mandolin, and hand percussion. People keep telling us they are amazed at how pretty our sound is, and that they thought it was the radio. We especially love engaging the crowd, getting them involved. People also tell us they love our song selection. We try to be unique in this, not the same old songs everyone plays, but familiar well-loved songs that people don't hear all the time. We have a Bose sound system and our own lighting and stage settings.
