What people say Help

  • I just wanted to drop a line to say thank you for helping us to organise Dan and Ella, and DJ Sammy on Saturday 5th February. Dan and Ella in particular were amazing, and everyone that listened to them thought they were brilliant. We were both glad to have gone with them. It was also a nice touch for Sammy to give us a disc of our first dance music.

  • My husband and I were really pleased that we chose Dan to perform at our wedding reception in August 2010, what little we enjoyed of him was very good and many of our guests complimented us on the choice of entertainment, they said that he was really good and that they really enjoyed it. Dan suited our venue and the general atmosphere perfectly. I would recommend Dan for any function and have in fact recommended him to many of our friends who are planning weddings at the moment. Thanks Dan for making our wedding day extra special and playing the song for our first dance :)

    Jennifer, Wedding, Norfolk, August 2010
  • Dan has played at our bar on several occasions and the feedback I get is always excellent. He’s a very professional and entertaining chap. I’m forever getting asked when he’s playing again!

  • I wanted to thank you for playing such brilliant music at our wedding. Everyone loved it. The cherry on the cake was when you learned ‘Angie’ for us.

    Dave and Sarah, Wedding, Hertfordshire, August 2009
  • Your performance at my 21st was amazing. My friends were singing along to all the songs. I couldn’t recommend you more highly.
