Best DJ and Live Performer!
Working with Dan was truly a great experience and he and the team at Come Alive Entertainment were extremely helpful every step of the way. He personally helped us build out our music plan for the big day and provided his expertise whenever we needed some extra help.
Dan’s live music during our ceremony is something that we will always remember and brought tears to our eyes and goosebumps to our arms. His music helped make the ceremony as special as we hoped for and those songs will forever be a part of our lives.
We both will never forget our first dance and singing along as Dan performed exactly what we wanted. That moment is truly a highlight of the wedding and of our lives.
After playing live music throughout the ceremony and cocktail hour, Dan helped us craft a great playlist for our dinner service and was the best DJ as we switched to the dancefloor. He made sure the dancefloor was packed all night long and played every song we wanted while also finding the perfect mix of songs for our guests. Dan was able to pivot when needed and was there for us in a way that we will always remember. Not only was Dan the best musician, emcee and DJ we could have hoped for, he is such a kind person and we could tell that he truly wanted to help make our wedding as special as possible.
Thank you so much to Dan and everyone at Come Alive Entertainment for making our wedding so memorable and for giving us memories that we will always cherish. We highly recommend choosing Come Alive Entertainment for your wedding or special event.

I can't say enough great things about this company!! I've had the pleasure of working with Dan, the Cimo Brothers and Moonshiner Collective. Each musician on their lineup is exquisite and really brings a special touch to any event!! As another local vendor, I continually hear guests complimenting how talented the musicians are. My personal favorite is Dan... he's just so darn entertaining and has perfected the art of mashing songs together! If you have the chance, book them now!
Growing up in a musically inclined family I have always been drawn to the live music component of a wedding or party but much to my disappointment have found that there are very few resources on the Central Coast....until Dan came along! Dan Curcio and Come Alive Entertainment are by far one of the most regarded and respected musical talents between San Francisco and Los Angeles. They run a pristine operation from the moment you inquire about a date until the last song is played. You can never go wrong when you consider Dan for your event!
I've worked with Dan on weddings, industry events, and attended several of his shows just for fun. He is incredibly talented, professional, and an all-around good man. And, he can do it all...write, sing, play, emcee, DJ...you name it. Always a pleasure!
