DJ Gary was phenomenal at our son’s college graduation party. The party ran from 1-5 and the music never stopped! For an afternoon party, we had a lot of dancers. Gary took requests, played an assortment of tunes for everyone, and was so professional. He was not obnoxious or dragging people out. Our guests were very impressed and everyone had a great time. We highly recommend him! Peter and Christina Farmingdale, NJ

We hired DJ Gary for our school's sports day. He provided the music, MC, and photo booth. He was very responsive from the first contact and provided a fair price for his services. He arrived early and had everything setup and ready to go for our start time. His music kept the day lively and a party like atmosphere. The photo booth was a big hit, the kids loved taking silly pictures to remember the day. We will be looking for him again next year.

Details: Prom or school dance • 200 - 250 guests • 12 years old or younger • Funk / disco • Pop • Oldies • 80s • Top 40 • Country • Rock • R&B / soul • Hip-hop / Rap • Outdoor venue • MC services

Dj Gary was so easy to communicate with from day one. So happy we found him. Adding our play selection was so simple. He did a great job picking songs after seeing our suggestions and also with announcing our events. He was so friendly and personable. All my guest had a great time. My husband really liked him. I will definitely recommend and will be using him for future events. Thank you so much for making my son special day a blast.

I played alto & baritone sax in jazz, symphonic, and marching bands giving me a terrific appreciation for all types of music.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
My knowledge & appreciation for all styles of music began in grade school while playing the alto & baritone saxophones through highschool, as well as my personal interest in the high end audio equipment. It was a natural fit for me!
