Marvel at the incredible credentials of the individuals that make up the Dan Hayes orchestra in "about the band" section of this website.

The Dan Hayes Orchestra ranges in size from 9 - 18 pieces! As a 13 piece, the excitement begins with 5 dynamic singers up front, who are in constant motion the entire event!! Every performer has a unique voice, crafting every vocal performance to be reminiscent of the original performer, and then adding their own distinctive style. Every selection is seasoned with all the beautiful background harmonies from the remaining 4 singers to create that full, professional, potent sound!

When Dan Hayes picked his musicians, (8 have been in the band for 15 - 20 years), he was looking for great players who love to perform and give it 100%, every night. There is a difference! When your guests see a band playing at a very high level, interacting with the crowd, that enthusiasm becomes contagious. When the trumpets players are dancing with the guests, or the guitar player is leading a conga line, or the sax player skids across the floor to play a hot solo, your guests take notice and get caught up in the fun.
