Anniversary Party•Reviewed on May 15, 2011•From Phoenixville, PA

Dave was a great addition to our anniversary party. He played and sang beautifully and our guests were thrilled with him. Many requested his card so I expect he will receive several more gig invitations as a result.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 17, 2010•From Media, PA

He was great from beginning to end. Agreed to play the classical music we wanted, helped choose other music, played overtime on the spur of the moment when our officiant ran late. Would hire him again in a minute!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 3, 2010•From Burlington, NJ

Dave did an excellent job in performing for my husband's 60th surprise birthday party. He played a variety of music and requests with his guitar and different musical instruments. Many of my guests made compliments and enjoyed his company. I would highly recommend Dave as he is a professional, an excellent musician, and all at a moderate cost.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 27, 2010•From New Hope, PA

Dave ROCKED!!! As you can understand the wedding was crazy as my bride and i ran around. He kept a very professional and formal appearance and all of the guest raved about him. I would recommend him to anyone out there looking for a great and friendly guitar player, he is the man for the job. Thanks Dave for everything.

Dave was fantastic! The quality of his guitar and harmonica playing was excellent, as was his song selection. Several of my guests complimented me on his music, and it contributed to a memorable wedding.

Private Party•Reviewed on July 12, 2010•From Neptune, NJ

Dave did a great job at our party. Good communication prior to the party. Worked out the appropriate playlist and kep our group entertained throughout the evening. He played the right music at the right times. Started with music that allowed us to welcome our guests and chat, and moved into music that had the group dancing and signing when the time was appropriate. Great job by Dave. Would definitely use him again. Thanks!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 15, 2010•From Phillipsburg, NJ

Dave was great! All our guests complimented how wonderful and how accommodating he was. He even helped me stay on task with the birthday cake by reminding me we should bring it out and sing pretty soon, etc. I love this guy!!! Other comments from guests were not only how good his performance was but that he was "complete" all by himself. Dave is a performer I would highly recommend for any function!

We thought Dave was great...he arrived early and set up with no problems. We also had to change our ceremony and cocktail hour set up last minute due to rain...this was no problem for Dave. He played well and our guests really enjoyed it! Thank you!!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 10, 2009•From Hummelstown, PA

This was the second time we had Dave perform at a family function and, as usual, he was a true professional in all aspects. He was set up before anyone arrived; he was extremely courteous; he was accomodating to people's requests and he played and sang a variety of instrumentals and songs with great musical talent. It's so easy and such a pleasure to deal with Dave--we will definitely use him again and will gladly recommend him to our friends and others seeking quality entertainment. Deb & Jack McDermott

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2008•From Califon, NJ

Dave did a fantastic job at our wedding, he was the first one at the church and ready to play before any of our guests arrive. The acoustics in the church made the guitar sound great, and the 3 songs that he learned for the ceremony were fantastic. Very laid back but very professional, I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an acoustic guitarist as part of any event.

Private Party•Reviewed on July 12, 2008•From Keansburg, NJ

Dave was very professional and extremely accommodating. He took song requests from my guests and he stayed longer when asked. Dave took very few breaks from playing the music which was fantastic because he plays really well and makes the party that much more fun!! Dave is very talented at what he does and EVERYONE kept asking me where I found him!! I would highly recommend him to a friend and I would more than definitely book him again for an event!! You are without a doubt getting more than what you pay for with having Dave as your entertainment!
