Live Music in Prohibition - 503 Columbus Ave. (UWS), New York, NY

This review is a bit late, but Dave was our wedding DJ in May 2024. We had the absolute BEST experience with Dave! From start to finish, he was professional, organized, and truly understood how to keep the energy going all night long. A year later, our guests are still raving about the incredible music and the seamless flow of the evening. Dave took the time to understand our vision, curated a perfect playlist, and read the room like a pro—keeping the dance floor packed from the first song to the last. His transitions were smooth and his mic work was spot on. Beyond just playing great music, Dave was a true professional—arriving early, coordinating with our other vendors, and making sure everything ran flawlessly. If you’re looking for a DJ who can bring the perfect vibe to your wedding, we highly recommend DJ Dave!

THANK YOU! We all had a fantastic time and enjoyed the music a lot. Wishing you happy holidays and all the best for the new year! We will definitely see you next year again!!

You were amazing and everyone had a fabulous evening! Really the entertainment could not have gone smoother and more perfectly. I have already referred you to my friend who has an event company. Enjoy the Holidays! We will write a raving review soon!

It was a pleasure working w/ you … my bosses were so very happy with you! Everyone had a lot of fun and I will definitely reach out to if there should be anymore DJ needed parties. Have a fabulous weekend and thank you so very much for your professional and passion for what you do!

I wanted to email you earlier to tell you how great of a time we all had last night at the company party…Davids is a hoot and a half…we just clicked immediately. He did such a fantastic job with the music that my EE’s are still talking about….just next yr my boss want a disco ball and fog…lol. Please let David know to give me a call to discuss a charity event that we spoke about in February Thank you for all your help and look forward to working with you again!

Thanks very much, David. I will certainly be contacting you the next time I need to book a DJ.

Thank you so much for providing all the musical services for Susan and Mary yesterday and for just being you and awesome. It was such a great night and working with you is always so easy and seamless. It’s really great being able to refer someone who can provide live music and DJ services all in one. Can’t wait to work with you again.

I am writing to offer my enthusiastic recommendation for David Swirsky of Expressway Music. He has been our DJ of choice for a number of years and due to the overwhelming success of the parties each year, we will continue to utilize him. David is a great DJ. He is very friendly, talented, and will provide you with the type of service and ambiance you are seeking. Our firm is very diverse, yet he meets all our needs in a very professional yet fun way. He will take recommendations from the floor but ultimately adheres to the person in charge. He respects that the firm has offered him a job and he will do everything in his power to make sure your party is a success. I can’t recommend a better candidate for a law firm or corporation.

I have had the pleasure of working with Expressway Music over the past seven years here at the Council on Foreign Relations’ Harold Pratt House, where they have proven to be one of the best entertainment vendors throughout New York City. They offer exceptional customer service throughout the planning process, they are professional before, during and after each event, and they always provide the best entertainment for every client. One of the reasons we love working with Expressway Music and recommend them to our clients is that they are incredibly professional and are mindful of our rules and regulations within the venue. The Harold Pratt House is almost 100 years old, with original floors, elevators and stairwells. These features create challenges for all vendors during load-in/load-out and setting up; however, Expressway Music always comes prepared to handle this and is completely respectful of the venue and the nature of the building. We appreciate their efforts and work with them to make each event special for the client and their guests. I believe with Expressway Music, you can never lose. They always end the night with the guests wanting the party to continue, which means they know exactly how to entertain any type of crowd. They have the ability to read the crowd and play the right music in any situation, which, after working hundreds of events, is a rare talent to find these days. They are communicative, friendly, professional and overall wonderful to work with and I strongly recommend them to be an addition to your vendor list.
