My focus is quality. I take my job seriously and I hope that I can make you happy so that you’ll consider me for your next event, and any event thereafter. Checkout my LinkTree for upcoming events, more reviews, and to visit my instagram. I am the Resident DJ for Première Los Angeles (premierelosangeles on IG). Let's team up and create memories! It is important for me to articulate, that I serve ALL PEOPLE EQUITABLY!! However, I do want to note that I do require that the couple has a Day of Coordinator (not the venue person). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve had the pleasure of working with DJ Trey on several events. From start to finish, he electrifies the room. Not only does he seamlessly blend different genders of music together, he knows exactly when to switch the tempo and build the momentum in the crowd. I highly recommend DJ Trey to anyone looking for a truly unforgettable event.

Keith is absolutley amazing. He gets to know you ans understand what you’re looking for. He feels the vibe of the wedding and matches it. He was great at announcing everything and keeping the guests going. My favorite part is that he actually mixes music and fades into the next song instead of just going from song to song. That was a nice surprise. My guests raved about him as well. He even came to our after party which we loved! Thank you again Keith, you’re truly amazing!!

Shivan can play everything from classic covers to original songs, so no matter your music and entertainment needs, he has got you covered.

While planning our wedding, we found Shivan online and met with him in person before the lockdown. We found him to be incredibly flexible with meeting us in person and listening to our requests. He took detailed notes and made great observations and helpful suggestions along the way. He had a running list of many classic and pop songs that he offered to perform live, and also offered to learn new songs just for us – amazing! Throughout the shutdown, he continued to stay in contact with us over the phone, and was able to make adjustments to the plans as needed. Shivan was very generous with his time, and was always eager to bring our vision to life. We had a detailed itinerary and he executed the plan perfectly! Aside from his ability to entertain with great live music and DJ events, he is able to adapt on the fly. Due to unforeseen weather conditions, we had to move locations from outdoors to indoors and he had the patience, equipment, and skills to make all adjustments with little to no guidance. Shivan is a dependable, entertaining, and truly talented musician who will exceed all of your expectations when you hire this professional for your special event!

Lucky Devils Band

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,020
  • Serves Bakersfield, CA

We're live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We're here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life! The Lucky Devils are a premium, customizable 3 to 14 piece band specializing in high-energy music–at a sensible price. Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. Reach out to get started! We also offer Photo-Video services!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding two years ago, we agreed right away that we both wanted a live band for the reception - it was the most important thing for both of us, as we knew we wanted that kind of energy in the room. As we researched bands (mostly through wedding-themed websites like Wedding Wire and The Knot), we came across the Lucky Devils Band and saw all of their good reviews. There are a lot of other bands you can find in and around Los Angeles, but they had one really big advantage that most other bands didn’t - regularly scheduled showcases where you could see them perform live. LDB were actually the first band we seriously considered, but we still did our due diligence and looked into a lot of other bands. We said to each other - we can’t just book the first band we find! Well, we ended up doing just that, and it was the best decision we made! Not only do they make it easy for couples to come see them live, they are also talented, professional, and truly affordable. Mike Smirnoff, the musician/producer who was our main point of contact was super responsive, friendly, and remembered us from early on (we ended up attending a lot of their showcases because we just enjoyed hearing them live!). The small downside to the band is that because they are essentially a collective, you won’t necessarily know which musicians will be playing on the day of your event, however, Mike took into account all of our specific requests for certain members we saw at each of their showcases, and he secured everyone that we had wanted. We had a six-piece band, which included two versatile musician/singers (Andrew on guitar & vocals, and Jason on keyboard and vocals) so we got the most bang for our buck. Kaitlyn was amazing on vocals, and Mark was killer on sax, with Dimitri on bass and Mike himself on drums rounding out the band. We got SO many compliments from our guests all night long - including from his parents, who are VERY picky about music, and from other friends who are composers/musicians themselves. Our wedding was in March, right as the pandemic panic was kicking into high gear - and we were very stressed about the cancellations and our own fears, but when the music started playing, we forgot about all of it and danced until we couldn’t feel our feet. We highly recommend the Lucky Devils Band to all couples!! Get yourselves to a showcase and see for yourselves how great they are!!

Michael Duke was our DJ/MC for our wedding at McCormick Ranch Golf Club. If I could give more than five stars I would. He made our entire wedding planning and wedding day experience so easy and fun. From the beginning, he was welcoming, professional, and great energy. We knew we wanted him to be our DJ the moment we had our first meeting. He organized everything perfectly and made sure to check in with us to make sure we were on the same page at all times. He did everything to make sure our day was going to flow perfectly. Wedding day was flawless. He managed to keep our wild bunch of 220 guests in order of where to go and what was happening next according to our timeline. He also managed to get and keep everyone on the dance floor. While we discussed what genres and specific songs we wanted prior to wedding day, he was able to take our suggestions and soar! The music was exceptional. I received many compliments from our guests that “the DJ was amazing!” The music was fantastic, the vibes were rolling, and Michael Duke was so much fun. I 100% recommend him as your DJ/MC for your wedding, or for any event where a DJ is needed. I know we will be utilizing him in the future. Thank you again, Michael, for everything!

On October 12th, we tied the knot and were fortunate to have Brodrick, also known as DJ Smooth B from Any Event Productions, as our wedding DJ. His performance was absolutely outstanding. Throughout the entire evening, the dance floor was buzzing, thanks to his fantastic mix of our favorite tunes. When our violinist had an unexpected emergency and could not make it, Brodrick seamlessly stepped in to provide music and a microphone for the ceremony and music for the cocktail hour as we only hired him for our wedding reception. His communication right from the start was excellent, and we even had a detailed Zoom call in the weeks leading up to the wedding to finalize all the arrangements. Brodrick was incredibly prepared, and everything ran seamlessly thanks to his professionalism and dedication. His exceptional services truly saved the day, and we can't recommend DJ Smooth B highly enough for anyone in search of a top-notch DJ for their special day.

His friendly, down-to-earth but professional approach to djing has won over the hearts and ears of people across the globe. He houses a large vinyl collection and 3 cats in his studio in Echo Park, Los Angeles.

Couldnt think of a better DJ for our wedding than DJ Ceviche. A consummate professional at every level who made our wedding fun and was so, so easy to work with. Ceviche worked with us to create a playlist that fit us. When we wanted a lot of control of the music, he gave it to us- when we wanted him to curate the music, he made the best playlist out there. Special props to Ceviche for suggesting a pre-dinner dance too- cant say how many of our friends have since emulated that move. All along, Ceviche was incredible to work with- clear communicator and made the whole thing easy for us. Cant recommend Ceviche enough!

Music has always been an important part of my life. With over 12 years of experience in the wedding industry, I fell in love with music at a young age, and being a wedding DJ has allowed me to share my passion with my clients on the most important day of their lives. DJing started out as a hobby; I wanted to do more than just listen to music, so I learned creative ways to blend my favorite songs together from different artists and genres to form an experience.

Vic DJ'd my November 2022 Palm Springs wedding. He was fantastic and I would recommend him without reservation. He showed up to the location days before to scope it out and on wedding day, he arrived early and quietly set up his gear. He played exactly the music we requested along with some other fun choices. When a friend requested a specific song, something rather old and forgotten, he grabbed it quickly and played it and it made for a great moment. I had a very positive experience with Vic.

Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is. Do yourself a huge favor and book them, you will not regret it for a second.

Restless Vocal Band

5.0

Lynnwood, WA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves Bakersfield, CA for additional fees

Hi! We're Restless Vocal Band - award-winning, high energy, a cappella from the Greater Seattle Area. We're all the fun of a cover band but with voices only. Our set list spans decades of music, from the 1940's through today, and covers a vast amount of genres: Motown, Doowop, pop, rock, jazz, R&B, rap and even a little country.

Awarded Best of Zola
Restless performed an amazing three song r&b set at our wedding. Jordyn and Sean especially are such great vocalists, and I'm still in awe of how the rest of the group makes incredible instrumentation with just their voices. In addition to their perfect performance, they were fantastic to work with. We asked them to send demos of the songs before the performance and they did so without any complaints or reservations (and, again, sounded great). They arrived early on the day of the performance and we never had to worry at all about their professionalism. We looked at almost acapella group in the Northwest before booking Restless, and we are so happy that we decided to work with them. We can't recommend them enough.

Cuarteto Guataca

5.0

New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Bakersfield, CA for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

Cuarteto Guataca is AMAZING. Every single member of this group is an absolute joy to work with, and their talent is beyond words! Cuarteto was our wedding band, and I don’t think anyone sat down the entire reception! Hire them now!!
