Dana did a beautiful job at our wedding and was very professional and flexible when the weather took a turn for the worse. He changed locations quickly and provided beautiful music for our event. Our guests really enjoyed his performance, and I would recommend him to anyone looking to add music to their event.

Very pleased with our decision to use Dana Starkell to provide our ceremony music. Not only is he a top-notch performer, but is very professional and worked well with our guests and our wedding party. Many comments were made to us regarding how great the music was and how nice it was getting to know and converse with Dana during the reception.

Dana Starkell was absolutely amazing. Everyone loved his music, and he was incredibly easy to work with. I cannot imagine having a more positive experience. Dana was everything we could have asked for and more. He truly helped make our wedding wonderful.

Dana did a GREAT job playing the music for our ceremony. He was friendly and easy to work with. Also, was on time (early even!) for the ceremony. His music really made everything feel complete and it was just beautiful. My husband and I feel we were so lucky to be able to have him play for us and our guests. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Truly a professional, very easy to work with and everyone loved him. Dana plays beautifully and it was even more beautiful than I imagined on my wedding day! My guests loved his music. I would highly recommend him for any event for any venue - he was very comfortable at performing a non-traditional type ceremony. Thanks Dana!

Dear Dana, It was lovely to have you perform at the wedding and the reception. My bridesmaid will be married in September, and wants to use the 'gymnopedie' you played for my processional at her wedding: my only regret is I wasn't able to sit down at dinner and fully appreciate the music you were playing. I know Kreso was very happy to get a chance to talk to you, and we both hope to have the pleasure of seeing you perform again. We're still wading through the wedding photographs, but I know there's a couple in there of you and I plan on sending a copy your way when we find them. Take care and Happy new Year! Arun.

Dear Dana,
Thank you so much for your performance, I was 100% satisfied. On a day that was so chaotic, it was so nice not to have to worry about music as well, you went with the flow and the music was beautiful.

Dana, you are such a superior guitarist. My audience was overwhelmed with your composure and electrifying performance at our theatre. Even though you seem laid back and really comfortable on stage you always seem to energize your beautiful instrument. That new guitar you played was amazing, it's sound is so deep and rich. Anyway, I wanted to let you know we will always bring you back for concerts here at my theatre and it's so fun to watch you add to your repertoire. Thank you Dana, I know you will be busy with your talent.
