Meet DJ Shannon C. A DJ, Entrepreneur, Radio Personality, and Business Owner dedicated to inspiring happiness and healing through music. A Born and Raised Florida Girl with a Passion, a Laptop and a dream, I am honored to work in an industry where I can help people to experience joy, nostalgia, and escape through music. Through digital DJ services, customized performances, thoughtful song selection, and community education, I help people like you experience the joy of music when attending a DJ Shannon C event. A Question that I’m Frequently Asked is “How Did You Get Started as a Dj?” For as long as I can remember, I’ve been completely in love with music. My grandmother started me on the piano at 5, and by 7 I could sit down and play songs I would hear on the radio. My musical ear was always very strong. I always gravitated to musical instruments, so it was no surprise that by age 12, I was the lead flutist in my middle school orchestra, and by 16, a lead trombonist in o...

If you’re getting stressed out trying to figure this out, don’t worry. I’ve got you covered. Below you’ll find 14 Questions that you should DEFINITELY ask your next potential event DJ before hiring. 1. Does the DJ Have Availability on your Event Date/Time? Sometimes I ask this question first. Sometimes I save it for last. But in the interest of being pragmatic, I’m putting this question first. After all, if they’ve not got your date/time available then I would imagine that they’re off the list. Make sure that the DJ personally has availability on your date. Some DJS / Companies will book the event and pass it along to a different DJ on the team. Be sure you know who will be coming to your event! 2. Ask the DJ to Describe Their DJ Style This is especially important if you’ve not had a chance to hear a sample of work or see them perform live before. You’ll want to know if their performance and music style will work with the vibe you’re going for. Not all DJs play Multi Genr...

When it comes to determining average pricing for DJ Services, I feel like finding the “right” answer to this question is kind of like finding a needle in a haystack. Considering that many service providers don’t list their prices on their websites, and that Gig Salad, Thumbtack, and Wedding Wire, etc. will really only show you average price ranges, it can be difficult to determine if having a DJ for your next event is going to even fit into your budget. Frustrating. I know. So in this article, I’m going to try to give you a better understanding of how much it costs to hire a DJ. We will look at how the pricing spectrum differs between different professionals, how Event Type makes a difference in pricing, and how Event Timing, Location, and Equipment Needs all factor into determining price when booking a DJ for your next event. 1. Different Professionals Will Command Different Prices. This is a really important concept to understand. Much like any market, there will be pr...
Do you need a Live Event DJ?

Have you ever been to a live event? Maybe you’re familiar with the traditional conversational hum that’s associated with a trade show floor. Maybe you’ve seen a motivational speaker do a keynote at a sales conference. Maybe you’ve been to a live promotional event. Being a DJ and an Entrepreneur, I’ve both performed at and attended several live events. One thing that all events have in common is the engagement factor. Simply put, once things get boring, people leave. If not physically, they check out mentally, making a lot of the content and sales efforts futile as the attendee sits in either complete overwhelm or utter boredom. And when you’re attending another one of those conferences that’s notorious for 12 hour days with limited breaks and information and sales overload, it’s really easy for your audience to check out. With that said, businesses must constantly strive to find ways to peak interest and increase attendee engagement to help improve attendance and maximize sal...

I’ve heard brides express worry around being embarrassed by the DJ, the DJ playing the wrong songs at the wrong times, or worst case, the DJ not showing up at all.

As a wedding DJ, I always enjoy talking to married couples, especially about their wedding experiences. Even couples who have been married for 25+ years will often look back in horror as they explain what went wrong on that special day. Surprisingly often, I hear “ Our wedding was great, but our DJ…awful!” When planning and budgeting, many brides lump the importance of the wedding entertainment into the same category as things like the tablecloths and draping. Trust and believe, I’ve never heard a single complaint where the wedding was great, but the tablecloths were all wrong and ruined everything! In 25 years, no one will remember the tablecloths, but they absolutely will remember the experience they had with their wedding DJ. In an effort to educate you so that you make your wedding entertainment choice a detail of higher importance than tablecloths and drapes, allow me to highlight 5 Things That Can Go Wrong On Your Wedding Day DJ Because of Your DJ!! 1.
