CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Dan Bradley and fellow musicians were wonderful. They played an excellent selection and their musicianship was of the highest quality. They accomodated every request and even played songs they haven't performed together before. Only the finest 'cats' can do that. I wholeheartedly recommend Dan Bradley and his band.

To anyone who may be considering hiring Dan Bradley, DO IT!!! When we first began our search, we got a lot of calls, and checked out several of the bands. Many were good, and a few were very good. Unfortunately, this generally translated to “very expensive.” Dan’s price, on the other hand, was very reasonable. Many of the bands had very slick promo CDs that were obviously made under the most ideal studio conditions. Dan is unusual in that he tends to underplay his talent, so he sent us a copy of a live performance. The sound was a little muddy, so we asked him if he had a video. He actually recorded a practice session just for us and rushed it to us. It was great! At that point there was no question. We hired him on the spot. Dan was great with accommodating our song requests, and worked with a friend of ours who wanted to do a song for us. He put up with the idiocy of our worthless wedding coordinator, who treated him terribly and, even more importantly, he kept her from making a tacky mess of our reception. For that alone he will have our eternal praise. When we arrived at the reception, all doubt about the band was removed. They were fantastic! They cranked out song after song, took requests, and kept the dance floor absolutely packed to the very end. That too would have been enough. But when our slideshow soundtrack took a nosedive, he stepped up once again and actually improvised a soundtrack for us on the piano! Throughout the entire process from beginning to end, Dan proved himself a man of character, talent, and absolute class. We have only the highest praise for him, and will be happy to give anyone a personal reference.
Regards,
Dan and Rebekah
