Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 1, 2026•From Trenton, NJ

Dave did an outstanding job for our 70th birthday celebration. He is a wonderful musician and worked with us on song selections to fit the overall vibe of the event. Dave also met with us prior to the event on location to go over the general logistics of the room. We highly recommend Dave for your next event.

Private Party•Reviewed on August 4, 2024•From Pennsville, NJ

I hired Dave to sing at a private party. He was very professional and made everyone comfortable and even included some of us in his performance. I would definitely recommend Dave and I would definitely hire him again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 3, 2024•From Hamilton, NJ

I hired Dave for my wife’s 50th in our backyard. Communication with Dave was very easy. He asked for info about the birthday girl ahead of time along with music preferences. Dave was great and all of our guests loved him. He played a great selection of music and kept the party going - I then paid him to stay an extra hour. He even let my Father in law (musician) take over the mic and sing to her. My wife took her turn at the mic with some of her cousins (a questionable decision - Haha). He even had our nieces (5/2) involved with tambourines! Dave was awesome to work with and we would definitely hire him for our next big event. Highly recommended! Rob

Thanks so much, Rob! I'm thrilled everyone loved the entertainment! What an amazing 50th birthday for Gina! Reach out any time!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on May 8, 2024•From Montclair, NJ

We scheduled Dave to have a wedding anniversary party for mine and my husbands one year anniversary as we eloped. We were looking for specifics in a singer to fit our genre and tempo of the event. Dave’s talent and overall accommodations and concern to ensure everything was going right and as planned was amazing. I can only hope I have an event to hire him again. He was courteous, professional, and the talent level supersedes the expectations of what you see listed on the profile. We thank Dave times a million for his performance and also for making sure everything was as requested and always flowing smoothly.

:

Thanks so much for the rave review, Brooke! I'm thrilled everyone loved the entertainment and had a blast! I'd be delighted to perform at another celebration. Wishing you and your amazing family all the best! Congratulations again!

Engagement Party•Reviewed on August 21, 2023•From Haddon Heights, NJ

Dave was professional from beginning to end. He was incredibly professional, a great communicator and incredibly easy to work with. Our plans changed a few times and he as able to adapt and be flexible. He learned a song just for this event and he nailed it! He even let my daughter get on the mic and sing a song at the end of his time. I can't speak highly enough of him. Dave was perfect.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 21, 2023•From New Hope, PA

Dave was PHENOMENAL!!! We booked Dave for our reception @ Stella in New Hope, PA this past weekend. Dave was great with communicating and working with us all the way up to the reception. If we liked a song, Dave said he good do it. If he didn't know it, he tried it and sent us a recording. I can't say enough great things about Dave. Everyone at our reception loved the music he played. It was absolutely perfect! I HIGHLY recommend booking Dave for an event if you are considering him. You will not be disappointed!

Dave was perfect. He played at a joint birthday party for my husband and me. He arrived early, he played through cocktails and dinner with just the right vibe. He also emceed for some toasts and led everyone in singing happy birthday. We couldn’t be more pleased.

Review by Jennifer M.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 24, 2022•From Morrisville, PA

If I could give Dave 6 stars I would! He was excellent in every way. When I told Dave about our favorite types of music I didn't expect him to have learned and performed songs just for us. Dave created a moment at my husband's birthday party that all of us will cherish for the rest of our lives. We feel so lucky to have found him! Thank you Dave! <3

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 22, 2022•From Schwenksville, PA

Dave was very accommodating and did an awesome job at our party. He arrived early, helped set the fun mood, and everyone enjoyed his takes on various songs and artists. He was also willing to negotiate his rate with me. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Dave again or recommend him to someone who was looking for great party entertainment.
