“Danny played for our wedding in Stanley park and was amazing! He even went above and beyond to learn a couple of requested songs and made my dream of walking down the aisle to LOTR music come true! All the guests were impressed and loved the atmosphere he created with his voice. Thank you, Danny. We had a magical wedding thanks to you!”
—Amélie // Client, Vancouver BC
“I found Danny on Instagram and asked him with very short notice if he would learn a couple of songs for a surprise proposal picnic that I planned for my fiancé. These songs were very special to me and my fiancé, and not only did Danny learn these songs but he also made them sound better than the originals. He even dressed up to match the theme of our picnic. Danny is super fun to be around, is very professional, and is extremely talented. He had both of us tearing up by the second song. Excellent job, Danny.”

—ARRAN BAIRD // Worship Pastor, Kamloops Alliance Church
“I’ve been working with Danny learning guitar for two years and I have improved significantly during that time thanks to his help and advice. He is very flexible in accommodating my guitar needs and is good at explaining all aspects of guitar including theory, technique, and learning to play your favourite songs. He is very open to interactive learning and consecutive lessons may differ in style and content. I always look forward to my weekly session with Danny. He is also super friendly. For reference, I was a basic new player when I started and I play almost exclusively acoustic guitar.”
