He's performed at some of the most popular venues in major cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Las Vegas, New Orleans, New York City, Southeast Asia, and New Zealand. Johnny believes in the power of music to bring people together and create unforgettable experiences. He's skilled at mixing various genres of music and connecting with diverse international crowds to create modern dance floors that leave a lasting impression on his audiences.

We were pleased with Mr. Hawke's professionalism. When we hired him for our wedding celebration, he came over to view the venue, took our request for music consideration and incorporated it into a music selection as DJ which went nonstop for 4 hours. I have to say the music was great, uplifting, and great choices regarding music selection. The success of a party includes having a great DJ, and Mr. Hawke's was the best. I would have no problems hiring him for another event.
