Corporate FunctionReviewed on September 22, 2025From Livermore, CA

We were thrilled to have Dave Muldawer perform at our recent corporate client appreciation event at Retzlaff winery. His set was the perfect balance of talent, energy, and atmosphere—creating a memorable experience for our guests. Dave’s professionalism made planning easy, and his music elevated the entire event. We received so many compliments from attendees about how much they enjoyed his performance. Highly recommend Dave for any event where you want top-notch live music and a great vibe.

Private PartyReviewed on August 24, 2025From Gilroy, CA

David's musicality impressed everyone of our 60 guests. He played all of his instruments for 3 hours straight without a break. His singing was exceptionally good and overall he contributed to the success of our party.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 24, 2023From Menlo Park, CA

I saw Dave perform at an event my friend hosted last year and hired him for a large family Christmas party. He was super communicative and showed up on time, very professional. He really read the room and did a wonderful job. Amazing how he can sing, play piano and the sax too! So versatile and talented. Thanks again.
