"From Bollywood hits to classical elegance, Olga tailored every moment perfectly. A true professional with star quality."
View This Profile - Olga Eckert - Violinist - Manchester
Dan was absolutely excellent and a perfect choice for my 60th birthday celebration. He was on time, looked great and was a good communicator. He played background music for his first set, then moved to a more upbeat tempo set for his second set.
Lots of people commented how good he was.
I would highly recommend him.

"Thank you so much for headlining the Red Kite Battle of the Bands last night! You were sensational, and delivered a mega-sensational set!"

We hired the DeeVines for our wedding, and I could not have been happier with the service received. From the initial communication and ensuring we were happy with the proposed set, to them singing our first dance song, absolutely phenomenal. I had so much positive feedback from guests, and the dance floor was packed for the whole of their set. If you want a professional, captivating, talented band, look no further, they made the night - cannot thank them enough!
