Kristina, comment on CD Baby
"Fantastic!" "My family visited Canada this year for a family vacation. We saw Dan the Music Man perform. I was simply amazed. I don't know who loved him more, the kids or parents! The songs were original and wonderful to listen too. He had all of us up on our feet dancing along to his songs. All children should see Dan or have one of his CDs"

Reply"Thanks for the fabulous concert at Stonehaven on Thursday! The students and teachers couldn't say enough good things about you. Someone said "He was fun and exciting but not over the top like some muscians can be" I enjoyed watching how well you related to the kids. I was so impressed at how you got all of those grade three boys up on their feet having fun! You are great at what you do."
Reply"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!!!!” It was a great performance. We so appreciated your enthusiasm. It was infectious!"
Reply"The kids had an absolute blast and loved your music. Many teachers, including myself, have been playing the songs for our kids in class and they dance and sing along. I think part of the appeal is that they learn the songs so quickly and can do the actions along with you. The performance was a big hit with the kids and the staff!"

ReplyHaving worked with Dan Devion for many years on family corporate events, he consistently provides an excellent, content-rich, entertaining and educational program for kids as well as their parents. Not only that, but out of the many musical shows out there, his is one that really engages and captivates children of all ages. We're also impressed by the sheer volume of children he actually has on stage participating at any given time during the show - something not seen to this extent by other family musical shows. Having said this, we would recommend Dan Devion a.k.a. "Dan The Music Man" without hesitation for any event planner looking for a slick, well-crafted and highly-entertaining family musical show.
ReplyHey Dan, Thanks again for coming. It was good to see that you had droves of children front and centre participating in your entertainment. I heard nothing but great feedback from your performance. My supervisor did mention that she would like more shows during your stay at the event.
ReplyJust a quick note to thank you for providing wonderful family entertainment this past weekend! Piratefest welcomed between 5,000 to 6,000 visitors and the event was a great success. Many thanks and we hope to work with you again.
Replyhis letter is to congratulate Dan the Music Man for putting on a wonderful concert for the Township of Wellington North. The event was held in March to help celebrate the completed renovations at our Arthur and Area Community Centre. This one-man show captured the hearts of both young and young-at-heart. His toe tapping music had everyone involved. The broad smiles on everyone’s face showed how much people enjoyed themselves. Bubbles surprisingly appeared from the stage and this created a magical environment. I would certainly recommend this entertainer for any event.
ReplyMany thanks for an excellent performance at our event on Thursday. The way you touch all of the little ones in the crowd is so amazing to see all at of your shows. You are a true professional!
Reply"The show was a complete success every time. The turn-outs and comments were phenomenal! Dan the Music Man is a great asset to our Social Itinerary! See you next year."
Reply"Thank you for another great performance. The children always enjoy your music - the interactive numbers are so much fun for them. We truly appreciate your experience and your skill in managing large numbers of little children. You are able to allow them the freedom to have fun but at the same time keep them under control so those around them can have fun too. You explain the games and dances in a way that they get it and you have your tried and true methods to bring down the noise level! And of course, you are a very talented singer!! It's a pleasure working with you."
ReplySome of the most uplifting highly energetic children's music I have heard!
ReplyYou 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.
Make a Bridge has some of the most uplifting highly energetic children's music I have heard. The songs have creative fun lyrics that involve everyone who listens. I know children that bath with Dan's CD playing in the bathroom, children that play it while they're going to sleep. I have a friend who listens to Make a Bridge in the car whether her children are with her or not!
Make a Bridge is the kind of music that energizes you on rainy days or during those grey days of winter. Make a Bridge is a CD that should be added to music collections in child care centres, schools and homes.
The best loved CD in the daycare
ReplyWe play this CD every day because the children ask for it and love it so much. The best CD ever for kids!
"I only heard good remarks from our guest regarding your show. Thank you for a great summer!"
