Overview
The Beach is a state of mind....Flip Flop Dave can help you escape through the songs inspired by the carefree lifestyle of the beach. Whether you are standing on the beach, or just wish you were, Dave will take you there with the songs of Jimmy Buffett, Kenny Chesney, Zac Brown and other beach style musicians, as well as his own music.
Professional, but also down-to-earth, Dave can be the background music for your party, or take a much more active role in your event by taking charge of the entertainment.
Originally from St. Petersburg, FL, Dave has become well known in the "Parrothead" community for his extensive Jimmy Buffett repertoire.

Dave was phenomenal. We hired him for a beach themed retirement party singing Jimmy Buffet style songs. He played for 5 hours.

Dave put on a terrific show for our backyard graduation party in spite of some absolutely crazy weather. He was flexible and understanding when asked to relocate a number of different times (outdoors, indoors, and back outdoors). In spite of the party being spread out (some indoors and some under tents outside) and not what we envisioned, Dave did what he could to make sure that everyone, both adults and children, had a great time. My guests thoroughly enjoyed his music and commented about how impressed they were with him. We will definitely have him back for a drier and less windy event but, even if the weather dissappoints, we know that we, as hosts, can count on Dave to give a "License to Chill".

Dave did an awesome job !! He arrived on time and set up completely on his own. He was up and running in a short time, and was very entertaining... Had the dance floor going before the night was done!!! Would highly recommend and would definitely hire him in the future.
