The Goat Audio

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Sterling, VA

With 14+ years of wedding expertise and clients like MLB, Capital One, and the "Real Housewives of the Potomac," we engineer the Greatest Of All Time atmosphere. We love a high-energy party but stay sophisticated and professional above all else. No cheesy scripts or "standard" playlists—just a custom flow tailored to your vision. Our setup is ultra-sleek and unobtrusive; we use modern gear that looks as clean as your decor. From DC and Atlanta to LA, we provide unrivaled nationwide coverage. If you want an elite team that turns up the heat while staying perfectly elegant, let’s make your wedding the G.O.A.T.

WHAT AN EXPERIANCE! I cant say how much I appreciate the Goat. We had very strict needs and probably looked at 20 different vendors. After talking to Brandon, we felt he really understood our needs. The day of the wedding - we were blown away. He showed up early and did one final touch point with us, after that it was so seemless. Our wedding party said it was the most fun they have had and everyone wanted to ask for the playlist haha. What was great is we gave brandon freedom to play with the crowd based on the parameters we set. If your looking for more then a DJ and wants a once in a lifetime experiance for the once in a lifetime day I cannot give any higher reccomendations.

He’s not just a DJ, he’s a hype man!! He kept the crowd on the dance floor all night long, playing absolute killer songs. His fun, upbeat, and personable personality made the entire night so fun!!

David was absolutely amazing for our ceremony and reception! During the build-up to the day, he gave us insightful tips and tricks to use in our planning efforts. Additionally, he was always available to answer questions that my now-husband and I had. The ambiance he created at the reception area was perfect, and I can't take much credit for that. I told him our theme, and he knew exactly what to do. It was perfect. Lastly, when I told David I wanted to dance under the stars at the night's end, he made that happen. I have wonderful memories captured from beginning to end of family and friends on the dance floor or under the stars enjoying the music and celebrating with us.

Bill Carroll was more than a DJ at my mom's wedding. He genuinely cared about my mom's wishes and made it clear he wanted her to have the best wedding ever. It's like he became a member of our family leading up to and during the wedding. He made the entire process SO easy. When it came to the actual wedding day, everything went off without a hitch. My favorite part was when everyone left to line up and send off my mom and her new hubby, he played one final song for just the two of them to dance to, by themselves, on the dance floor. It was so incredibly touching. I can't recommend him enough. Absolute stand up guy and a DJ who knows what he's doing! Everyone had a blast. We love you, Bill Carroll!
