Matthew · Based in Thunder Bay

Hi, I'm Matthew. Music has been a passion of mine for years, and I've been DJing private events and weddings for several years now. Nothing beats the thrill of a crowd reacting on the dance floor, and I'm looking forward to being a part of your special day.

I keep the night on schedule, the mic moments smooth, and the floor full. Every event is planned with you directly, and I'm the one who shows up and plays it.
