Ladies Night Fundraiser Gala.
I had the pleasure of meeting and enjoying Dani for the first time the other night at our 3rd Annual Ladies Gala for the Coniston Playground Association. I was blown away immediately at the awesome talent Dani oozes! The ladies were all a chatter, "Who is he" "Where is he from" "He's awesome" "I love the variety of music genres" and collectively singing, clapping and tapping along! As I sat with him through dinner I got to know who Dani is. He is talented, warm hearted, spiritual, giving, kind, funny and a great hugger. I look forward to seeing him again and again! He's a diamond in the rough, that you want to make sure you don't pass by the opportunity to enjoy!

CHANTALE CORMIER FROM SUDBURY, ON
We had the pleasure of having Dani and his friends played for my cousin's Stag N Doe on the weekend. They were amazing, people were up dancing all evening. The variety that they played was great. There was lots of positive feed back.
Thank you for a great evening:)
MONIQUE MYRE FROM SUDBURY, ON
You guys were the best. Everyone I spoke to were commenting how great your music was and what great variety to dance to. We danced the night away. Both my daughter & future son in law couldn't believe the great music you were playing. I even heard that they wan't to book you for their wedding & of course you guys are already booked! Awesome job guys.
DOUGLAS SIMMONS FROM SUDBURY, ON
For one thing, your sound is amazing full, and your repertoire extensive and varied. All in all, very flexible and very good. I really enjoy listening to your music - well done.
LISA HAMILTON FROM SUDBURY, ON
Dani, you are one hell of a guy and have an amazing voice. Me and the girls (Lori & Renee) always love to go see you play. For people who don't know you, well, they should because you would definitely put a smile on their face. You're just good like that! =)

September 19th Wedding.
We cannot thank you both enough. It was a pleasure to work with you from beginning to end. Your professionalism, attention to detail and the enthusiasm you showed for our special day was magnificent. We could not have asked for more.
What an AMAZING party!!! The performance was fabulous!!! The dance floor was always full and the music appealed to guests of all ages. We had so much fun and our friends and family are still raving about you guys!
Thanks again for making our wedding day so memorable and FUN!
GUY GASCON FROM SUDBURY, ON
September 19th Wedding.
All I have to say is that for a two people band you made a lot of band to shame. I could not believe the way you guys played that night. I am speechless you played great music, music you could dance too, not that I'm able to dance but my wife just loves it. Everyone I talked to that night couldn't believe how wonderful you guys sounded. You have talented voices and performed so good together. Continue the hard work, you guys put in a lot of effort and long hours into your music it shows. Enjoy a few days off, you guys deserve it. Later, Great performance.
DAVID FROM SUDBURY, ON
September 12th wedding.
You guys did an absolutely stellar job last night. Our wedding simply would not have been as good without you! People kept coming up to me and telling me how great you are and what an awesome party we were having. Thanks!
My Dad also noticed your performance is "more polished" than the last time he saw you. I thought you'd like to know your fans appreciate how you keep getting better!
Thanks again for helping us make the day fantastic!
Dave
FRANK AND JACKIE FROM SUDBURY, ON
Our wedding day, August 15th.

GEN FROM SUDBURY, ON
What great talent! All I can say is that yesterday's celebration night was memorable and will be cherished forever by everyone that attended. Thank you again! You truly have an amazing talent. Keep up the great work! A+++
PETER SCHNEIDER FROM SUDBURY, ON
Bell Park Gazebo Concert Series, Aug 2.
Dani’s performance was a breath of fresh air (pun intended) at the eighth open-air park concert in the series. From the outset, he drew the sizeable audience to him with a fine choice of song styles and cheerful banter. He gave a rich treatment to the selections and demonstrated mastery of the guitar. When the non-stop hour performance drew to a close, the audience certainly wanted more so they were favored with a few encores. This young man has captured the knack of showmanship early on in his promising career.
SYLVIE FROM HANMER, ON
THANKS SO MUCH! Dani, how can I ever thank you for making Rej and I's 25th wedding anniversary such a memorable night! You are an amazing performer....this is the second time I have the pleasure to hear you perform and I would book you again in a minute! Everyone was so impressed, you kept them dancing till 4am...everyone had SO much fun! I hope you make it big some day!
CLAUDE PAQUETTE FROM SUDBURY, ON
Dani I just want to thank you for the entertainment. You are truly a great entertainer. We had a blast!!! On another note my uncle who was at the party is planning a family reunion for next summer and he would like you to play. I will get the dates and send them to you.
Thanks again
Claude
ANITA FROM SUDBURY, ON

MIMI O'BONSAWIN FROM SUDBURY, ON
Heeeey Dani, you played at my moms party saturday and I need to say you were amazing! You have great songs and got everyone at the party talking. They all came to talk to me and ask how we had found you. Tu es vraiment une de mes inspirations. I hope I will be an entertainer like you one day, I wanna do what you do. Anyways we thank you alot for making such a great show, my mom really likes it. She still talks about you!!!
SHANNON FROM SUDBURY, ON
Had Us Dancing All Night!!! Dani played for a surprise 25th wedding anniversary we recently threw. He had my entire group on their feet and dancing all night! Dani really knew how to play for the crowd and was a pleasure to have at my event. Dani was a delight to work with. He kept in close contact leading up to the event and totally added to the success of the event! Thank You Dani. And you can count on us to call you for our next event!!
JOHNNY BRUNETTE FROM SUDBURY, ON
Amazing Talent!!!!!! Dani played at our annual May long weekend celebration and I have to say what an unbelievably talented singer. Now I know why they call him the human jukebox!! He can perform any era of music that would keep any crowd entertained for hours. Dani can even have an 80 year old women dancing just 6 weeks from having hip surgery. (Right Dani, ha, ha.) Can't wait to head to Peddlers Pub or The Coulson to see this guy in a full blown show. Thanks again for the fantastic time!!!
TARAS DZIUBA FROM SUDBURY, ON
This past Saturday of the May long weekend we had a surprise 79th birthday for our mother. We invited some neighbours to join our garage party. We got my mother seated and then Dani started to play. From that point on everyone was completely taken by the beauty of Dani's voice and skills. Following that Dani took a bunch of requests before ending with Happy Birthday. I would highly recommend hiring Dani for whatever the occasion - he is truly unbelievable.
LISA FROM SUDBURY, ON
We want to say thank you Dani for keeping us entertained the whole night....We had a mixed crowd and everyone could not believe the talent you have! We loved every song you played and couldn't stop dancing! We are lucky to have such a great entertainer close to home. We hope to have you back in the near future...we are looking forward to it !!!
CAROLE FROM SUDBURY, ON
Wow! What a great party! We hired Dani for a 50th birthday party. Music was fabulous and talk about variety; truly amazing! This guy really knows his audience and how to please them. A true professional. The crowd was up dancing all night long. Everyone was commenting on his great talent and personality. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to have a great time dancing all night long! I sure look forward to hiring him for more events in the near future. Thanks a million Dani! You're the best!
AGNEW LAKE LODGE FROM WEBBWOOD, ON
Great New Years Eve! We asked Dani to perform on our New Years Eve party. Apart from playing his own repertoire we also had a sing along where everybody could join in, it worked out great everybody had a blast and it was a unforgettable evening. Thanks Dani, great voice great personality, great performer. See you at the fishfry july 1st.
ERIN FROM SUDBURY, ON
WOW! Dani played for our staff Xmas party this year out at the Sportsman's Lodge and let me just say he was fantastic! We have held a party every single year to say thank you to our employees. Well, this year over a DJ, I thought we should try something different.....a band! I don't think I have EVER seen a party where every single person was up dancing to EVERY song! Everyone truly enjoyed themselves. Thank you Dani for making our night so unforgettable. Hey and now we've lined him up for next year and for a family wedding. There won't ever be another entertainer at any of our functions! One of a kind!
KRISTIN & MARK FROM SUDBURY, ON
What a fabulous evening!! Mark and I hired Dani to play at our wedding. The music was great. Our guests were treated to a great time. Everyone loved the music and were wondering where we had found such great singers. Thank you so much so making our wedding a splendid success!
JANIE FROM SUDBURY, ON
Thank you Dani! I would like to say a very big thank you from all of the Canadian Mental Health Association for all the support at the annual fundraiser "Art in Bloom".

KRISTIN FROM GARSON, ON
We booked Dani for our wedding after we had heard him at the Sudbury Curling Club. He was fantastic, the crowd was up dancing all night and everyone kept telling me how great he was and was wondering where we had found him. Dani has a great attitude and personality and his music appeals to all age groups. When you book with Dani, I promise you won't be disppointed!
LINDA FROM HANMER, ON
Excellent entertainer for all age groups! Dani has performed for different family events for me and has always been sensational. He knows how to read his crowds to provide them with the type of music they will enjoy! He is always very personable and will involve his audience. His vast range of music is incredible. He is the only performer that I will consider hiring!
MARTI FROM SUDBURY, ON
I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Dani’s performances in various settings and venues. He is an extremely proficient artist who brings his best to every show, always! He is an accomplished musician who knows his audience and connects with everyone in the room. His extensive repertoire and individual style is very much worth experiencing. Dani is a local gem to be celebrated!
EMILIE FROM SUDBURY, ON
Hi Dani, You sure are a real hit at the market! Many people have asked if you will be coming to perform this summer again. We were wondering if we could book you in now for some summer dates as we know you have limited availability. Look forward to hearing from you :)
