October 31, 2024Dayela’s heartfelt performance
Dayelas performance at my brother’s funeral was one that that stays in my heart forever. Her voice carried so much grace and emotion that you could feel her warmth fill the auditorium. The position of her heart while performing is a gift and I have no doubt that it touches any audience she is in front of, as it did for me and my family that day. A very intentional, passionate, and vibrant performer who delivered a lovely showing I’ll never forget.

October 27, 2024Performance at The Ghana Club
Our country club invited Dayela to Ghana to come and perform and she was extremely professional, so lively and had the crowd absolutely awestruck. It was wonderful watching her perform to esteemed audiences who gathered to catch a glimpse of her. From the way she interacted with us when she was performing, to the way she explained each pieces she was performing left us in utter excitement.
I can truly to say that I’ll love to see someone be like her and give us that same energy that filled the room. Such an amazing personality.
I will recommend her for any event, be it concerts or other events put together by music enthusiasts.
