About Gannon Events
Gannon Events
I've been a pianist my entire life and found I had an ear for DJing in 2000. Mixing and transitioning just seemed inherent and I enjoyed it. My love for music led me to start playing for small gatherings, non-profits and eventually larger events. Music was always in my life, so today I work professionally as a full-time Wedding & Events DJ, pianist and MC. I'm happy to be working with so many great clients, schools and companies. Fun Fact: I've written and produced original music for video games! I love what I do and it's always a good time! Let's discuss your event this week.
1) My team and I are both DJs & MCs...important that we're comfortable on the mic 2) I create a detailed custom timeline for you (you requests all the music you like) that we go over together to plan your successful wedding

Daniel G.
Wedding DJ
Grant/Gannon was a phenomenal DJ at our wedding. He had great communication throughout the months ahead of the wedding, providing us a timeline, asking questions for the vibes/song choices and providing plenty of options for the day of. He was very flexible and able to move between rooms between the ceromony and reception with no issues. He was a great MC and was able to make all of the wedding announcements according to the schedule, and was able to be flexible with the schedule when needed. He also provided additional "small touches" such as sound effects throughout the speeches which was fun and appreciated. By the end of the night multiple guests came up to me complimenting the DJ. I would recommend Grant/Gannon events to anybody wanting a great, fun and communicate DJ for any event. Thank you again!
Grant Gannon•Jul 3, 2026Thank you, Daniel! Congrats again to you both, loved your family and guests. Let me know if I can help with any future celebrations down the road!

Grant Gannon DJ for our wedding
We highly recommend Grant Gannon. He recently was the DJ at our wedding, and he was excellent. Everyone had a great time. He took the time to meet with several times prior to get a feel for exactly what we wanted. It was great!

Christine
Phenominal DJ and Pianist
As a fellow wedding professional, I can confidently say that Grant is top-tier. He brings a level of professionalism, care, and attention to detail that truly elevates every event. From expertly curating the music to seamlessly incorporating live piano, his talent is unmatched. Beyond that, he’s the kind of vendor who goes above and beyond for everyone involved, making the entire experience smoother and more enjoyable. Any couple would be lucky to have him.

Professional and helpful
Grant’s expertise in his field helped my wife and I create a memorable playlist for our reception. Our guests commented that he seemed to know when to play the right music at the right time, but I know that it’s because he is greatly skilled at his craft. Folks remember an event for the good times they had, but it’s the DJ in the background that can sometimes make or break the atmosphere of the event. Grant made sure the music matched the tone, and our guests loved every minute of it! I have nothing but positive feedback for Grant!
Grant Gannon•Mar 1, 2026Thank you, Jonathan! Happy for you guys and what a great night in downtown Chicago.

A Perfect Wedding
We hired Grant to do our wedding and he was great to work with! He made sure to include every little request I made and paid a lot of attention to detail. I had many different specifics, playlists, even some songs that needed to be cut in certain places, etc and he handled all of it perfectly! Before the wedding, he also emailed me a template so we could have the whole day/night planned out exactly right. This helped a lot and helped me see some things I wasn’t thinking with! A large number of our wedding guests said how great the DJ was and how much fun they had because of his work. All together, it was a great experience working with Grant. Definitely recommend!
Grant Gannon•Aug 20, 2025Thank you, Kristel! Looking forward to the next family celebration.
