"The music was so awesome and set the day perfectly and David you moved around seamlessly and did such an amazing job"
If so - you're in the right place!
Hi - I'm David,
and I love performing for weddings and getting to contribute to your wedding day being amazing!
I'm based in Auckland and travel as well, and I'm available for everything from your wedding ceremony and canapés, right through to managing speeches with a wireless mic, and packing out the dancefloor til the small hours with my energetic live-looping set.
"Thank you so much, you completely made the day for us and were just amazing, way beyond our expectations."

"I can't believe you played non-stop for so long!!! You are a machine. There was such a good vibe on the dance floor that people just did not want to leave."

If you're going to sing at my wedding - who are you?
This is me right before the ceremony up in Matakana getting ready to manage the wireless mic levels from my ipad so everybody hears things clearly - and of course making faces for the lovely photographer Dasha.
Good question - here's a little bit more about me!
I've been playing guitar since I was 14, and singing from about the same time. And yep - I'm still working on improving both of those things - which is a fun adventure that I expect I'll be doing for my lifetime!
I've had the pleasure of playing many beautiful weddings, as well as corporate events for the likes of Air New Zealand, The AA Association, Coca-Cola, The Dairy Women's Network, FMANZ, and many more. It truly is a joy to bring my vibes and skills to set the mood for your special day - as well as get to hear your stories of romance and love during speeches and your ceremony.
I've also been fortunate to have an amazing solo career writing and releasing my own music (which you can find here). This has seen me tour internationally, be featured on Seven Sharp multiple times, appear on the Good Morning Show, and get to open for Foreigner, Heart, and Three Dog Night! I've even had a #1 single on iTunes with a cover of 'Jessie' by Joshua Kadison that I released with my father.
I feel pretty lucky and grateful to get to do what I do, and bring music, smiles, and joy to all sorts of events and occasions. I'm also a bit of a tech nerd making sure everything sounds amazing.
...but that's probably enough about me - so here's a few tunes you can listen to below of me playing live, and some contact links so you can reach out if you feel we'd be a good fit!
xoxo

"David has a fantastic voice and personality to go with it. So many people at our wedding commented on how lovely he was and what a fantastic job he did. David can pretty much play and sing anything and can cater to the audience on the day. I would not hesitate to recommend David for any occasion and look forward to hearing him sing again soon"

Auckland Wedding - Ceremony & Canapés
David was superb to work with and made our night of celebrations and its entertainment so easy. He very cleverly managed to read the crowd and ensure that there was a great mix of music to suit us all, we had so many complimentary comments from our guests on his performance, mix of music, and David’s easy personable approach. We’d happily recommend him in the future.

Auckland Birthday Celebrations
He was so easy to work with, nothing was a problem for David, he even came around to our house to help our daughter choose a song she could sing with him on the wedding day. I would happily and enthusiastically recommend him to anyone wanting to add something special to their wedding or function, he is just simply brilliant!

Wedding Canapés & Live-Looping Vibes
So you can hear me singing live - here are a couple of clips from my YouTube Channel. The first two videos are full clips recorded live, and the third video below features Marika and I singing at a recent wedding, as well as a few snapshots of us performing at other events around Auckland also.

Why hire a singer for your wedding?
There's a reason we buy tickets to live music events rather than simply listening on Spotify 😉.
Having live music on your Wedding Day is that extra touch that makes the day feel special, and adds to the magic of the love you share. A live performer is often the link between the vibe you've imagined - and making that feeling a reality on the day.
Aaaaand....
It also means you can relax and enjoy the day!
Knowing your musician will find the appropriate moment to wrap up the song when you reach the front of the aisle, and takes care of sound for themselves and your celebrant (so your ceremony is heard) - means you can enjoy each moment without stressing about speakers and tech gear!
