Athan turned our casual backyard BBQ into a magical musical journey. His professionalism was impressive, arriving 30 minutes early to set up his PA system, microphone, and other equipment. His wide-ranging performance, from "Bad Moon Rising" to Kings of Leon, was nothing short of captivating.
His knack for audience engagement added a delightful twist to the evening, turning it into an impromptu karaoke party under the stars. Even when his initially booked two hours were up, Athan graciously extended his performance, keeping the fun alive.
In Athan, you'll find more than just a gifted musician; you'll discover an entertainer who transcends expectations, immersing you and your guests in a captivating concert-like experience. Highly recommended for any event seeking a blend of fun, interaction, and unforgettable music.

I can perform as a solo artist and either provide background music, for cocktail hour etc, or a more engaging experience with more uplifting music where I can interact with the crowd and get them to sing along and dance. I can also perform with a full band, again as background music or a more uplifting music etc. In general very flexible and easy to work with, with plenty of experience on private and corporate events, with previous clients such as Bank Of America, Snow Joe and more.
Apart from live music, I am also a very experienced DJ and instead of hiring a band as well as a DJ, which some events may require, I can provide both in a more affordable price!
As mentioned in previous section, I can also provide sound, video and lighting services, for any type of venue / event. Please feel free to reach out and I'd be happy to accommodate your needs and help run a successful event!
