Dan Kelly

Music is important! To so many people, for so many different reasons. I love music and especially performing it. I never take this lightly and I will always deliver heartfelt and passionate vocals at any special event. Working as a professional musician for over 15 years, for some of the UK's best and busiest function bands, I am looking forward to adding some more gigs to my busy year, as a solo performer. I love the intimacy and rapport you can build with an audience as a solo artist. For me, it's always about you, the audience. A good audience is just as important as a good performer. I always want to play what people want to hear, what people didn't know they wanted to hear and play some songs they'd forgotten were so awesome! I take time over my arrangements of cover songs. I like to pay homage to the original song so that it is familiar to you but also add my own subtle spin. If I have the honour to play your first dance or sing you down the aisle, your special song will be learned and performed as if it were my own. All my promo videos are from live, actual gigs, usually filmed by my audience, to give you a more genuine feel for my product. I always have lovely chats with clients and audience members after playing and they are always so pleased with song choice and delivery. I have played for hundreds of amazing clients in prestigious venues, all over the UK and the World. I'll list a few highlights below: Clients and Venues HRH King Charles Mcdonalds The Ritz Virgin Atlantic (on a plane for Richard himself) Cadbury RHS Chelsea Flower Show (Raymond Blanc) Le Manoir Aux Quat'Saisons ITV Claridges Tower Bridge (Opening of glass floor) Uber The World (Private Yacht) McClaren Rochelle Humes British Vogue National Portrait Gallery Natural Hustory Museum Wembley Stadium Tottenham Hotspur Stadium London Stadium BBC Good Food Show (Hampton Court) James Martin (Lygon Arms) Royal Ascot Henley Regatta I have collaborated with various comedians and presenters for corporate gigs over the years: Jo Brand Rob Beckett Romesh Ranganathan Sean Locke Sir Ian Mackellan Derek Jacobi Nick Mason Rowan Atkinson Vittorio Angeloni Alastair McGowan Through my years in the industry, I have gained a clear understanding of the way public events run and how they work and I use this experience to make sure your day runs as smoothly as possible.
