Chris - DJ/MC
Andrew - DJ/MC
He was born and raised with a passion for music. His father was a DJ before he was born, therefore he took an interest at a very early age. Even with numerous years of experience, he still enjoys continuing to learn and grow — allowing the experience he provides to consistently be fun and relevant to current trends! Outside of music he is an engineer and project manager, husband to his high school sweetheart, and a father to two young boys who he hopes will also grow up loving and appreciating music in the same way Andrew has.
