Dave graced us with his presence for my 40th birthday party and set the mood for the entire afternoon. We had originally only booked him for an hour, but after 2 songs, my friend walked over and extended him for an additional hour and a half. We had a great time, I think he had a great time and if given the opportunity we would love to work together again. Thank you for making the day exponentially better.
Response from MakAttack Music:
Hey! Thanks so much for having me out on what was an amazing party by the pool! I definitely enjoyed it and happy you did as well! Crazy how small of a world it can be after finding out that you fine people were at Brownwood Paddock Square in the Villages for the 25th Anniversary show when I was performing with Rocky and the Rollers before you even knew I was with that band! :) Look forward to working with you again! Always a pleasure!
Our company had a professional networking event and MakAttack was absolutely amazing. Sounds were so classy! We are booking him again for our upcoming event!
