Dan played at our wedding during the canapés and was such an incredible compliment to the atmosphere! He does not try and “be the entertainment” and does not try to interact like other acts I’ve seen. He is simply there for you and he was THAT good, he secured another booking via one of the guests who simply “had” to have him perform. His voice is smooth and satisfying and the selection of songs go down so well with the audience. After reading this review, your next step is to book ASAP and hope your date is available

We recently had the privilege of having Dan sing an acoustic set at our wedding ceremony at The Hundred House Hotel in April. From the initial booking right up until our wedding Dan was so helpful and accommodating. He even helped with song suggestions that suited our venue and feel for the day, also discussing the best sections to use and timings etc. He was very approachable and professional and it added a special touch to have live music for walking down the aisle and the ceremony. So many of our guests commented on how amazing Dan was. I would definitely recommend Dan to anyone wanting to book for special events and weddings. Thank you for helping to make our day so special
