Let me entertain you!
Hi, I’m Dan.
I'm a professional musician, singer, guitarist, songwriter & MC from Agnes Water/1770, on the Central Queensland Coast. I specialise in providing entertainment for weddings, parties, events & corporate functions.
I have over 15 years’ experience in the music industry & have played at hundreds of events & venues across South East Queensland & Tasmania. Now being based in the beautiful town of Agnes Water, I am able to travel all over Central Queensland, Wide Bay & the East Coast of Queensland.
My ethos as a performer is to keep things simple. I aim to go above & beyond to add atmosphere & create a beautiful, seamless & well organised experience. I focus on providing professional & reliable service, clear communication, quality equipment, affordable pricing & great music. I am also extremely passionate about working with my clients to customise my performance to meet their needs & entertain them with the music that they want to hear!
Why choose me for your event?
-
Prior to living in Agnes Water, I was a full-time, professional musician, managed under Rooster Entertainment & Live4Locals. I have performed at many weddings, events & iconic venues over the years including the Stone & Wood Brewery, Old Kempton Distillery, The Glen Hotel, Wynnum Manly Leagues Club, Bundaberg Services Club, The Cleveland Sands Hotel, several Pig & Whistle venues across Brisbane & many… many more! I am good at gauging what your guests’ will enjoy & playing music that everyone will know and love. As an experienced MC, I am well versed at reading the room, I know what it takes to manage the flow of a reception & get the party started!
-
Having planned my own wedding (at the beginning of the pandemic), I understand the importance of being a punctual, caring, reliable & professional vendor. My wife works closely alongside me to manage my bookings to ensure all clients are met with responsive, caring & efficient service. I am also available by email & phone to help you plan the finer details & answer any enquiries you may have & to customize your event to the best of my ability.
-
I use high quality Bose speakers, Rode microphones, LED pixel corner lights, Cole Clark guitars & Elixir guitar strings. I arrive 40 minutes (at a minimum) prior to the event, to ensure the sound quality & set up is great!
-
I believe having a MC or live music at your event shouldn’t blow your budget! My pricing page & packages are transparent & easy to understand. I am always happy to work with you to find a price which is a happy medium for us both. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like a quote tailored to your event.
-
Both myself & my equipment are insured (with both Public Liability & Personal Contents’ Cover).
-
I can play anywhere! My battery powered system is perfect for outdoor events & wedding ceremonies. My prices are inclusive of travel within 150km from Agnes Water (which includes Bundaberg & Gladstone), however I am happy to discuss options if your venue or function falls outside of this range.
Listen & Song List
My style is best described as upbeat, easy listening – below I have attached a downloadable PDF song list which outlines my diverse repertoire. If you’d like to hear more of my music, please visit my YouTube channel.
