Dan's Reviews

5 out of 5

Dan stood in for us when we were unfortunately let down a few weeks before our wedding day. Our meal ran over and he could not be more accommodating to fit around our wedding party. Everyone commented on how good Dan was and he really got the party started. Couldn’t thank you enough!

Dan was incredible, the whole wedding loved him he was an amazing addition to the welcome drinks. I couldn’t recommend him enough

Dan played for us (Hunza G) at an event in our London store and we were beyond impressed with his performance. He took our brief of music that aligned with our brand and pulled together a playlist that just nailed it – everyone was up dancing and having a brilliant time. The event attendees all gave shining reviews and told me how much they enjoyed his performance. We’d definitely have him come and perform for us again. Thanks Dan!

Thank you for playing for the ceremony! It made it so special. Your background music for the reception was perfect too. Thanks again
