Hey! My name is Trey (he/him). Let’s be honest: the standard wedding DJ vibe can be a little cringe. I offer the antidote. I am a signed recording artist on 2 major global indie labels, Electric Radio UK resident, and have done support work for major names in the industry. That is unparalleled experience, achieved through unparalleled technical skill. If you are looking for a "Game Show Host" on the microphone, I am not the guy. But if you want a professional artist who can keep the entire dance floor packed until they kick us out of the venue, let’s get to work.

If you're willing to cover my travel expenses then I'm happy to com perform for you where ever you are! Having me on live sax alongside your DJ is a great way to set your musical experience apart. It combines the best of a DJ experience but with a unique live element that you and your guests will not forget! Visit my Instagram for more.
