When you hire me, you're getting so much more than just a “DJ”. You're getting someone who supports your vision for the most epic party you've always dreamed of, no matter what. You get a fellow creative mind to bounce ideas off & build the perfect timeline. You're getting a party-forward collaborator designing a deeply personal, eclectic, sophisticated soundtrack that drips good taste and leaves room for those perfect impromptu bangers to drop on the day-of. You're getting a true friend who is as invested in the FUN and SUCCESS of your celebration as you are!


I'll share everything I've learned from helping design & rock 150+ weddings since 2015, with almost 300 weddings under my belt since starting in 2002, including what to do (or not do) & plenty of ideas you never even thought of! You’ll get as much help & guidance as you need to create your fully-customized dream wedding day that’s 100% YOU.


The couples you see throughout my portfolio are real examples of how fostering a deep connection musically & personally and collaborating on the priorities for your magical day create unforgettable, unbelievable results. Let the man with the mustache bring the party.

My DJ Bio

THE RUNDOWN:
I'm a wedding DJ who actually GETS YOU & JUST GETS IT. People dig that.

#REALTALK:
I'm not afraid to admit—many wedding DJs are just okay. Okay music choices, okay mixing skills, okay connection with the crowd. Few have truly exceptional music taste, refined mixing skills, an unmatched ability to tune in to the crowd & create the perfect vibe at all times. It's not enough playing the right songs, but knowing when & how to play them. To rock a crowd while still running the entire event, interacting with guests & vendors, and having a great personality to match. I love what I do and have gratefully built a little community.

THE RESULTS:
SONGSTRUCK DJ is one of the most highly regarded brands in the industry. Over half my couples come by word-of-mouth. Every year since 2014, I've been fully booked. Occasionally couples have moved their wedding dates just to hire me. I've even travelled halfway around the world to deliver my talents for their intimate elopements. Over 150 weddings later, and I still count my blessings for every new opportunity. I've been regularly featured and awarded for my work, including in The Knot Magazine, Junebug Weddings, Green Wedding Shoes, Martha Stewart Weddings, and Exquisite Weddings Magazine.

GIVING THANKS:
I owe all of my success to other people—to my clients, who are fans of my work; to my industry colleagues who trust me to take great care of their clients & have been there for me as I grow; and to my family, who encouraged a teenage passion project to become a thriving career. And lastly, to Grandmaster Flash, Jazzy Jeff & my brother Marcos, who inspired me to explore the world of DJing from a young age.

Former Pirate…

Founding member of THE DREAD CREW OF ODDWOOD, a 7-person acoustic folk/metal hybrid band with a nautical theme.

We toured North America as a rock outfit while headlining various U.S. Renaissance Faires as a top-billed theatrical show, sharing the stage with artists like ALESTORM, TURISAS, RHAPSODY OF FIRE, METALACHI, STOLEN BABIES, MAC SABBATH, BUCKETHEAD, DAVE LOMBARDO of SLAYER, etc.

I wrote some of the music & lyrics across three albums, played a combination drum / percussion set known as the “Öddkit” & sang backup vocals. I also wrote a lot of folklore. Truly the best way to spend my college years, with several lifetimes of insane, hard-to-believe stories to share.

Between tours I would DJ weddings & parties as word-of-mouth spread. In 2014, I had two choices — stay in the band & tour more, or launch a solo career as a professional DJ/MC & “tour” with couples!
