David was wonderful to work with and we are so happy with how everything went at our daughter’s recent Bat Mitzvah. David listened carefully to exactly what we wanted – we wanted a fun environment, a lively hora, and music that was not too loud – and he provided exactly what we asked for. He was very responsive and always got back to me in a timely manner. I highly recommend David and Expressway Music!

We used Expressway Music for my daughter’s bat mitzvah in September 2018 and Dave and his team were the best! I tend to be an anxious person and planning this event wasn’t easy for me. But every conversation in advance of the event left me at ease with my decision to hire Expressway and the day itself was amazing. Most important: my daughter and her friends had a blast. Dave is honest, kind, patient and fun. What more could you want for an event DJ?

Thanks so much both for a fabulous party. We were very happy with the entire event – the music was great, Daniel did a fantastic job keeping the kids engaged and involved, we loved having such a large dance space, the kids were gloriously happy and the adults never stopped telling us what a great party it was!! So thank you for all you contributed. We agree about the space – it really worked out for us and the ceremony that we had downstairs was also in a beautiful space with huge windows and great views. Quite a few people have complimented Michael’s father’s speech – he’s 87 years old and a wise and thoughtful man so we were glad people got to see that side of him. Thanks again – who knows when we’ll have another event but we will certainly return to you if/when we do!

Dave and his team were amazing at my daughter’s recent bat mitzvah. We had some very specific requests for what we wanted and he handled them all beautifully. We met numerous times throughout the planning process to make sure we were all on the page. The party was everything we hoped for and the dj was a big part of that. The Emcee and dancers were fun and great with the kids. It was a fantastic party and I’m so grateful to Dave and his team! Would highly recommend for a bar/bat mitzvah!

DJ David and MC Daniel provided the music and entertainment at my son’s bar mitzvah this past weekend. We had a blast and so did all of our guests. They kept everyone happy on the dance floor ranging from the kids to the grandparents and everyone in between. They read the crowd really well. I spoke with DJ David, the owner, before the event. He asked just the right questions to understand what sort of party we wanted and made specific suggestions to make that happen. He even recommended against an add-on item that would have earned his company more money because it didn’t match the type of party we were looking for. The communication with the team was seamless and always pleasant and professional. We could not have been happier with Expressway Music.

Dave DJ’d our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah ten years ago, and we told him then that we’d be back in a decade for our son’s Bar Mitzvah! And we were. And last week he – and terrific DJ Corey – did it again. Just as in 2008, Expressway Music took the time to learn about our family and especially our child, and gave us exactly the party that we were so hoping for: upbeat from the first minute (notwithstanding the gray, rainy day outside); precisely tailored to our son, his friends and our adult guests (all of whom prefer things to be festive while, as the motto says, not too loud or over-the-top); full of games, dancing, laughter and great fun. Once again, Expressway Music helped to make this very meaningful milestone in our lives, that much more joyful. Special thanks to Charissa, who is endlessly patient, instantly responsive, and like Dave and Corey, gave us a wonderful day with memories to last a lifetime…. including Grandma leading the conga line!

Yelp does not provide enough stars to give proper credit to Dave Swirksy and Expressway Music. Five stars doesn’t do it. When I started planning my daughter Julia’s bat mitzvah party over a year ago, I swore that we would not have a DJ. I have had so many miserable experiences as a guest at mitzvah parties (and weddings) where the music was deafeningly loud, so loud that the walls and floor seemed to vibrate and you couldn’t have a conversation with the person standing right next to you unless you literally screamed in their ear. have been to more than one party where I sat there with earplugs, unable to socialize or enjoy myself or even hear myself think. So when Julia expressed a wish to have dancing and games, initially I said no. I said no the second, third, and fourth times she asked as well. Finally, I began to worry that she wouldn’t have fun at her own party and agreed to look into finding a DJ that both kids and adults alike might enjoy. I was skeptical, to say the least. Fast forward to November 18, 2019, when Julia and our guests — kids and adults alike — had the time of their lives thanks to Dave, who was our DJ, and the incomparable Daniel as emcee. Dave has an uncanny ability to read the room, play music that will be fun for all the guests, and meet the host’s goals and take the host’s wishes into account. I honestly wasn’t sure how this was possible, but he did it. It takes enormous talent and sensitivity – not to mention good taste – to accomplish this, and the experience was so amazing that it far surpassed anything I’d expected. The music was at an appropriate volume so that people could dance and enjoy themselves, but also so that people who weren’t necessarily dancing could enjoy themselves as well, whether at the bar, in small groups of people having conversations, etc. Daniel the emcee just charmed the kids with his sense of fun, creative games, whimsical dances, and more. He was so much fun, even adults joined in. (Yes, I tried to limbo!) When both your 13-year-old daughter and your 81-year-old father are raving about the entertainment at your party, you know you found the right talent. From the time I started my initial search for a DJ to the date of the party, Planning a party like a mitzvah or a wedding is a substantial investment financially and an even greater investment emotionally because it celebrates a milestone of enormous personal and cultural significance. My daughter was so proud of what she had accomplished in preparing for her bat mitzvah and could not have found a better way to celebrate than with music and dancing guided by Dave and Daniel. I honestly don’t think I ever saw my child so happy. As a parent, one’s happiness is often determined by the happiness of one’s kids. That was certainly true here, but not entirely, because I thoroughly enjoyed myself in the moment as well and will remember it all for a very long time. I am really grateful to Dave and his colleagues and cannot recommend him highly enough.

We had Dave DJ our son’s Bar Mitzvah party and he was SO WONDERFUL! Dave is warm and kind, easy-going, responsive and creative. He really listened to us and what we wanted to evening to be like. He was responsive to our son’s requests too. We asked him to work with an emcee who came from out of town, and who he’d never met before; he didn’t miss a beat. We gave him a list of songs, and he read the crowd perfectly, most everyone danced all night long. He also made the genius suggestion that we add karaoke, which was a real hit. The party was fabulous because he kept everyone dancing and having the best time! We loved working with Dave and I can’t recommend him highly enough!
