Your enthusiasm and obvious joy for singing mesmerized and entertained the 300 pre-schoolers and had adults in the room toe-tapping and dancing! We are sure to invite you back! Once again you were a hit! You are quickly becoming a part of the Pumpkinville tradition. The response to your performance was great!
The Marshville Heritage Festival, the Barrie Fair, the Brighton Applefest, Back to School and Thanksgiving in Resort Muskoka were a few highlights as summer fades to fall. The children are still talking about the performance. We haven't taken down the posters as yet because they are a great topic of discussion - "that's Dan the Man- he was here, we saw him you know!"
Some of the most uplifting highly energetic children's music I have heard! You will start off tapping your toe, snapping your fingers then, clapping your hands and finally before you know it you will be dancing the day away. I speak from experience having had this happen to me at one Dan's performances during Week of the Child.

I had the pleasure of growing up listening to Dan the music man's music and even saw him perform live a couple of times. My sister recently got married and i wanted to do something special for her since it was a quarantine wedding, i reached out and asked if Dan could make a little shoutout video congratulating her and he was happy to help. i was thinking it would just be a quick thirty second video saying congrats but instead i got a very nice video and he even sang one of her favourite songs. i had a really great experience and highly recommend listening to his music, it definitely changed my

When we were first able to get together live on stage at our Great Northern Exhibition I was blown away by how you could so easily engage an audience. And not just any audience, but an audience of all ages. Watching you work with families shows that you have a real understanding of what they want, and what is not just fun, but also a learning experience.
We are looking forward to welcoming you back again.

€śDan the Music Man” has been performing for the Verspeeten Cartage Children's Christmas party for several years. We have between 60 – 80 children between the ages 1 and 12. He has a talent to keep all the kids engaged and involved. The smiles on the children’s faces say it all. The parents have told us how the kids look forward to coming every year. Dan is very reliable and professional. Dan is an important part in the success of our event. We would strongly recommend his service.

Dan the Music Man is a phenomenal artist, performer and entertainer - and has been for a long time. I first saw Dan perform in the late 90's at Cullen Garden in Whitby and attended many of his performances after that. As a kid, I loved his music. Listening to his catchy tunes on repeat was what got me heavily invested in music, and led me to pursue music myself as a performing musician and music teacher! I ran into Dan at one of his performances in 2019 and was amazed to see that he had the exact same (if not more) energy as he did from back in the day. The kids at that performance were all thrilled

You could never go wrong with Dan the Music man at any event for kids up to about the age of 7! He is energetic, fun and the kids loves the entertaining and silly songs he sings. It's always easy to book him from start to finish and great value for schools!
The performance was very well done!! The kids loved it and even several of the staff stated that it was entertaining for them too!! One common "like" was of course the bubbles!! WE NEED A BUBBLE MACHINE!! LOL The concert was entertaining, fun, interactive, age appropriate - really - all around amazing!!

Thank you Dan for putting on such a fantastic show! The kids absolutely loved you and from a promoter's perspective, you were one of the easiest performers to work with. I never had to worry about a thing! We were lucky enough to snag you for two separate events and we'd love to have you again. Bravo!!

"Thank YOU for bringing such immense joy to our annual Children’s Party! The children adore you and the employees/parents have nothing but wonderful things to say. We definitely will want to book you for next year’s event and as soon as I have a confirmed date I will let you know. Happy Christmas and Peace in the New Year!!"
We have invited Dan to our company children's parties for years. He is more of a professional guest and good friend then hired entertainment. Always reliable and willing to give a little extra time to keep the fun times going...everyone in the company knows and loves him

I just graduated from university and I have been reflecting on my past experiences. Without a doubt, one of my fondest memories from over 10 years ago is still the performance from Dan the Music man in my elementary school. From that one visit, I still remember the lyrics to all the songs he sang that day. The songs were wholesome, energetic, and considering I still remember them, incredibly catchy! I highly reccomend Dan for any future shows or events. He truly made my childhood more memorable. If you are reading this Dan, thank you for being amazing and for making delightful memories for kids

I have known Dan for many years and my dancers have enjoyed his music in class as well. Back to Back and the Freeze Dance are a fond opportunity for parents and kids to dance together. Working with Dan to create an album was amazing, and for anyone looking for children's music, he is an amazing resource of talent to create, workshop, or offer a concert. My career as a dance teacher has been blessed by the fantastic music Dan Devion creates!
