Review by Derrik S.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on April 21, 2026From San Francisco, CA

DJ Buddy Holly was an absolute pleasure to work with. He came fully prepared with his own gear and brought a level of versatility we don't always see. He opened with a beautiful classical guitar set during cocktail hour, transitioned seamlessly into a warm dinner vibe, and then kicked the dance party into full gear without missing a beat. Lights and sound were dialed in perfectly for our event. A true professional from start to finish, and we can't wait to have him back!

DJ Buddy Holly was wonderful to work with. They came early to set up for our event and then returned later to DJ the dancing part of the wedding reception. They played nice and unobtrusive music during dinner. During the party, they kept the good dance music coming so we always had lots of people on the floor -- many of them dancing for two hours straight. The bride and groom were pleased that they played all of the songs they requested.

David was really responsive to our requests, especially our needs for an edited combination of two songs for our bride/groom first dance. He and his wife worked out very well and all of the guests had a great time. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

This was the 2nd event we hired DJ Buddy Holly and he didn't not disappoint. We had a multi faceted event and he and his team were able to handle the details without issue. He is very easy to work with and I would recommend him highly!

WeddingReviewed on August 4, 2019From Oakland, CA

David Kramer did a great job of listening to our style and request. He showed up on time with his wife and kept the party going during our reception. The only thing I marked him down for was that he was difficult to get a hold of at times, took a while to learn that he operates better with text messages rather than emails. Overall I would recommend DJ Buddy Holly to a friend :) Thank you!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on July 3, 2019From San Francisco, CA

DJ Buddy Holly was an absolute treat to have at our wedding! We sent him a playlist of all the music we loved, had all of our songs coordinated to perfection, and he (and his fiancé!) was so sweet in going with the flow of the chaos of the event. His set up was awesome, and the lighting was beautiful against the backdrop of our wedding at the Presidio in SF. All of our guests were super pleased with the mix of pop and traditional Mexican music which was perfect for our mixed culture wedding. Thank you so much Dave!!!!! Highly recommend you to anyone looking.

Arrived early, super friendly. Played all the music we loved. WE WERE JAMMING ALL NIGHT, and David was so patient with all the request and an extremely slow internet. CANT WAIT TO NOOK WITH HIM AGAIN. THANKS GIG MASTERS AND BUDDY HOLLY DJS

Simply wonderful experience with DJ Buddy Holly! He made the music part of the wedding a breeze. Took song requests and somehow intuitively knew the perfect genre for our wedding! Thanks again!!!!

David is extremely professional and adept at what he does. He was very forthcoming and determined to make our wedding as enjoyable and fun filled as possible. It is obvious that he takes pride in his work and we could not have asked for a better DJ for our event. Would recommend time and time again.

David was great. He handled all my special requests and really knew how to gauge the crowd and play the right music. He had a nice presence and really did a great job trying to get everyone involved in the party. I would definitely use him again. Thanks David!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on November 14, 2017From El Granada, CA

DJ Buddy Holly was great. Communicated well. Showed up on time. Managed everything himself. He not only brought great sound capabilities, but also a great music selection of what we had requested and lighting. Would definitely hire again.

PromReviewed on December 4, 2017From Fresno, CA

DJ Buddy Holly works in the moment, paying attention to the crowd and adjusting as need be. He played music for 4 hours to high school teenagers, who can be attention challenged. He did not repeat a single song and he kept those kids on the dance floor the entire time. The students want him back for our next dance!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on September 20, 2017From Bolinas, CA

DJ Buddy Holly DJ'd our wedding on 9/16 and did an amazing job. He was very professional, helpful, and communicative. We asked for a party atmosphere, gave him a schedule and a list of about 25 song requests, and he took it from there. The dance floor was going all night long and our friends all commented on what a fun time they had! I don't know much about music and I am so glad we had a knowledgeable, friendly, awesome DJ there to steer us in the absolute right direction. I can't recommend him enough!

This is the second time we have hired DJ Buddy Holly. He is very professional,he is always on time and he listens to what we want. This was a wedding,so he was very helpful with announcements and kept the reception fun with people wanting to dance. He is friendly and he is spontaneous if needed. He knows his job well. I would hire him again.
