Incredible Talent To Celebrate Our Special Day

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Dave as our acoustic guitar player/singer at our wedding in San Luis Obispo, CA and we couldn't be happier with the incredible experience he provided.

Dave brought a level of charm and talent to our wedding that exceeded our expectations. His beautiful voice and skilled guitar playing set the perfect atmosphere for our special day. From the melodies before and during the ceremony to the acoustic tunes during cocktail hour, he created an ambiance that left our guests enchanted and full of joy.

One thing that truly stood out was Dave’s ability to personalize his performance to match our unique style and preferences for the ceremony. It made the whole experience even more meaningful and unforgettable.

In addition to his musical talent, Dave was a pleasure to work with. He was friendly, accommodating, and genuinely passionate about making our day extra special. If you're searching for the perfect musician for your wedding or any special event, look no further. Dave’s talent, professionalism, and genuine dedication to making your day memorable are unmatched.

Thank you, Dave, for helping to create the most magical and memorable wedding day we could have ever hoped for. You were the perfect choice, and we are forever grateful for the beautiful music and atmosphere you helped to provide on our special day.

Great in all ways.

Dave played for a big group at my wife's 70th birthday party.
His music was beautiful, enjoyed by all. We have since seen him play at numerous venues throughout the central coast of California. We have made a new friend. If you have a chance to hire him for an occasion or see him play at any venue, do it, it will make your day.
