    Don’t Think Twice. Book the Dan Walker Band!

    Wow! The Dan Walker Band rocks! They worked with in our schedule and budget, learned songs that we requested (and played them to perfection), showed up on time, kept the vibes up and brought the house down!!

    They truly made our wedding special and played sets that were tailor made for us and our guests. The night was a success thanks to Dan and his band. They even stayed to play an extra hour as a last minute request. The Dan Walker Band is top notch.

    Dan Walker Music's reply:

    You both are fantastic! The evening was wonderful and the band had a great time! We love a dancing crowd and your wedding was all of that and more. Thank you!!

    Great group for any occasion!

    Dan and crew were an absolutely terrific addition for my 50th birthday party! He was polite, responsive, and played a little bit of everything that kept the party going and the crowd dancing. We couldn't have been happier that we hired him and would definitely recommend that others consider doing the same!

    Outstanding performance

    Best song choices too. 10/10

    Dan Walker Music's reply:

    Created a Perfect Atmosphere!

    Dan and his band provided the warm, folk energy and vibes I was looking for during cocktail hour and the serene and romantic music I wanted for the ceremony. Everything was beautiful and perfect! I love how they played the vocals for Paper Kites when I entered the cocktail reception (the same song I walked down the aisle to except with instrumentals), it was very lovely and meaningful. And the transition from ceremony to reception went amazingly. Everyone had such an excellent time. Many thanks!!

    Blown Away!

    With COVID, we were unable to see Dan and his band prior to booking him so went purely on reviews. Needless to say, he exceeded all of our expectations. Our families are big dancers and he did not disappoint them, with everyone still raving about the night and music the next morning during brunch. Such a great find!

    Dan was perfect!

    I can not recommend Dan enough! He was perfect for my intimate wedding and reception. My family and I love music and having a good band was a must have when planning my wedding. Dan exceeded all expectations and I had multiple people come up to me and tell me how great they were. Thank you Dan and group for making my day perfect. If you have any doubt about booking him stop right now and do it!

    Great sound and flexibility.

    Dan Walker Band played for our daughter's wedding. They were prompt, engaging, willing to play some very special songs for our particular crowd, and extremely flexible with one of the hottest days of the summer! Their sound was amazing and we danced despite the heat! Thank you for being an important part of our daughter and son in law's wonderful wedding day.

    Everyone LOVED them!

    We planned our wedding from afar, so it was a gambol, but the band was AMAZING. Dan has an incredible voice. Even my other vendors told me how amazing they thought the band was! They played to the crowd and read everyone well. Despite the crazy heat, everyone was dancing the night away.

    Perfect! Book these guys :)

    We are so happy we chose the Dan Walker Band. They were exactly the vibe we were looking for for our fun, casual, outdoor garden party wedding in the Cape and they were just all around nice guys to get to know a bit in between sets. Dan did a great job flying solo with his guitar and amp during our beach ceremony and the band rocked the reception afterwards. They played a great mix of songs- slow and upbeat- and even offered to learn two songs of our choice. I was thrilled with how they pulled both of them off! Their rendition of Charlie Puth's "Marvin Gaye" was a tall order but they nailed it! Communication was great by phone and email throughout the whole process. Do not hesitate, book these guys. You will not be disappointed!

    Boston Wedding - Great guys! Great music!

    Truly talented musicians, these guys can really play! Song after song, I got so many comments throughout the night about how great Dan and the band sounded. Not only do they have an amazing song list, they offered to learn and play our very obscure wedding song. I knew the band would do a great job with it, but honestly, I liked their version even more!

    I also can't say enough about how professional and flexible Dan is. Leading up to the wedding he was on top of all our email exchanges. Our reception was fluid and things were changing up until the day before. Dan handled all our small intro/speech/announcement changes like an absolute pro!

    Bottom line - the band sounded fantastic and its obvious they love what they do and work hard at it but most importantly, they have fun with it too. They truly check all the boxes! Any time we need a band in the future, Dan will be the first guy we call!

    Truly talented and met all of our expectations. Actually exceeded!

    Thank you for years of memories! You exceeded expectations. Especially when you had set up on the deck to ensure our cocktail hour was superb!!!

    Thanks for having us Amy! You did a wonderful job planning such a beautiful wedding and in a very short amount of time. The venue was beautiful and Ben and Tiana were fantastic. All the best! Dan

    Great music set list and excellent to work with

    Dan Walker performed at our company Christmas party to celebrate our 15th year of business. They had a great set list of varied music that allowed for easy listening during the cocktail hour and plenty of great songs for dancing after dinner.

    Dan is very responsive and professional, allowing for coordination before the event to be seamless. When the first guest arrived at the venue, music was already playing, which helped to set the mood for the evening. I highly recommend Dan Walker for a great experience and for any type of event.

    Dan Walker Music's reply:

    Thank you Stefan! It was our pleasure to help with your party. Clay Hill farms is a great venue too and he staff our very helpful. Looking forward to working with you again!

    We booked The Dan Walker Band to perform during our wedding ceremony and reception. We did not have your typical, traditional wedding ceremony and wanted to personalize every single aspect of it. Dan sang and played his guitar to a few of our favorite songs by The Beatles and Warren Haynes (to name a few) while our guests were being seated. I walked down the aisle to him singing "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis. It was really amazing! The reception was just as entertaining! These guys are very talented and I would recommend them to anyone.

    Our nonprofit, Stay Work Play NH, was looking for musical entertainment for our signature annual event, the Rising Stars Awards. In looking for a style that would be appropriate and suit the variety of our hundreds of guests, I came across Dan Walker through a Google search. I listened to a few of his tracks and knew this was an artist I wanted to work with! Our pre-event communications were great, he knew exactly what I needed for promotional material. The evening of the event, Dan arrived early, had a professional set-up and was ready for guests when the doors opened. Although I was running the room during the event, I found myself moving to the music as I was making my way around greeting and speaking to guests. HIGHLY recommend him for corporate events!

    Dan and his band were the perfect choice for our wedding. They're great musicians with their own style and sound, pulling from an extensive and varied catalog. We had many comments from guests about how much they enjoyed the music and dancing. From the time we booked until the day of the wedding, Dan was professional, responsive, and offered advice on stage, power, songs, timing, and many other details we had to cover in advance of the big day. We couldn't have been more pleased that we chose Dan Walker and his band. They were the perfect fit.

    Dan Walker Music's reply:

    We had a wonderful time and met some really great people. Thanks for letting us play apart in such a beautiful day!

    The Dan Walker Band provided a perfect highlight to an amazing wedding on a lake shore. My son-in-law did the research and came up with Dan’s band. He went through Dan’s musical listing and picked everything that he wanted for dancing the night away. Dan allowed for an additional 2 requests which the bride and groom used to pick their first dance and another. We added in the steel guitar for the night and it was a great addition. Dan played for the wedding ceremony as well. We wanted dance music and dance the night away is what we all did which included everyone through the senior citizens. When I write that everyone was impressed that includes the venue owners, the caterer and their staff and there were no complaints from the other side of the lake. Dan was pleasant to work with and everything worked out perfectly from beginning to end. Thank you Dan and the rest of the band.

    Thanks for all the kind words! It is wonderful to hear that everyone enjoyed working with us. Cheers!!
