About
My business is all about YOU! I have spent my entire life in the entertainment business (over 8,000 events); either performing as a keyboard entertainer/MC/DJ or (with A-1 Entertainment) as a provider of virtually any type of entertainment including "State of the Art" Photobooths, Karaoke setups, Game shows. I have all kinds of entertainers and entertainment including Inflatables, specialty acts, and have worked with many people planning and organizing their events. Your event is virtually guaranteed to be a success when you hire someone who has the best equipment and the knowledge it takes to create your perfect party! Check my reviews and you will see that I really care about my clients. Call/email me with any specific questions. All the Best Mike ps. As a former music teacher, I still take on occasional students who are as passionate as I am about learning. I really enjoy creating those special memories for people. There are really very few days in our lives that we look back upon and remember in great detail; it makes me happy being part of those wonderful memories I can help create with my expertise.

Mike Purcell was perfect to work with. He was well educated on the music. He understood the different vibes of the night to know which styles of music to play and when. He has a collection like no other DJ I have ever met. If he doesn't have that one song you want, he'll find it. Incredibly easy to work with. Do not know how to pick the music for your big day? He is well organized and helps guide you through the whole process from start to finish. I do not think I could have asked for a better DJ for my wedding. Being in the same industry I know how music can make or break a party. If you go with Mike you are sure not going to have anything but the best time.

Wow! Gal is a professional wedding planner! With her experience in the business I knew what she wanted and did everything I could to make the day completely unique and special for them as a couple. I hope I helped create a memory they will cherish forever.

A-1 Entertainment and its staff provided EXCELLENT customer service and follow-through (with very short notice). The DJ was fabulous - very engaging and energetic. He came with a complete DJ system, including karaoke software, lights and fun ideas to keep the crowd moving all night. Would definitely recommend their services.

DJ "Jonny Love" is great. He has worked with me for over 10 years. He knows how to make a party go in the right direction. He is young and energetic and knows how to read a crowd. The result is always a super party!

Mike played, sang, and dj'd my mom's 90th birthday party. He was a fantastic asset to the party - he read the mood of the crowd the entire evening, took requests, got people up dancing, and my mom even lead a congo line! I would highly recommend Mike and plan to have him again. Candice

I hired Micheal Purcell as a DJ for my daughters' Bat Mitzvah after he contacted me through Thumbtack. Although I was initially hesitant he eased my concerns with an experienced philosophy regarding ideas to engage guests for the best party experience. Our party was set as an afternoon affair in a room located in the synagogue. The girls did a fantastic job during the service and Michael helped to continue the joyous atmosphere once the reception began. We all had a blast dancing and enjoying the wonderful occasion and Micheal's skill helped to keep the mood celebratory throughout the entire event. I highly reccomend his services .... Even my experienced caterer took a few of his cards for future reference.

Mike was our DJ for our daughter's wedding reception. The bride and groom are big fans of Irish/Scottish music, and Mike had no trouble putting together the kind of music they wanted. He even found multiple versions of a fairly obscure song my Dad requested at the reception. At our request, he kept the music quiet enough so that we could talk during dinner, and he was great to work with. I would definitely recommend Mike and A-1 Entertainment.
