September 30, 2026Wonderful Experience! Made the Party
We had David play music and sing for my parents 80th birthday party at Pietro’s restaurant. David was very communicative. Everything was spot on. From the background music during the cocktail hour to the Vegas style show towards the end of dinner and afterwards. Everyone had so much fun! I would definitely recommend him for your next party.

I hosted a bday party for my wife. David did a great job with pop and rock across generations. He was solo or we sang alone. We danced and laughed and had a great time.
