I can't begin to explain how happy I am with A Beat Away Entertainment! We hired Joe for our son's high school graduation party. We had a huge lit tent in our backyard and we had a parquet dance floor--that dance floor may need to be repaired because from the moment Joe & Steven started playing music, our guests were up dancing all night long! I gave Joe a list of songs to play and asked him to play those, but to also "gauge the crowd" and play music that he thought would get them going. That's exactly what he did. Not only that, when I walked up to Joe and wrote down a song that I wanted to hear next, he was sure to promptly play it next. We originally hired him to play from 5 to 10pm....but when 10pm came and he said that the song coming up next was the last song, our guests were completely disappointed....so I asked Joe & Steven if I could hire them for an additional hour....and they accommodated my last minute request. The crowd was so happy. I wish I could post a video because these pictures don't do the party justice. I got 40,000 steps on my Fitbit from dancing the night away! When my daughter graduates in three years, I will be sure to call Joe & Steven. They say that food and music can either make or break your party. Joe & Steven completely MADE our party. If you want further info, please feel free to ask Joe to put you in touch with me. I'd be happy to tell you more :)

Praise for Joe Pet!

DJ Joe Pet from A Beat Away Entertainment was an incredible part of our wedding day. From the very beginning, he made the entire event run smoothly by keeping us on track and handling every transition with confidence and professionalism. The music was perfectly curated for each moment, and once the dancing started, the floor stayed packed all night.

The sound quality was excellent, and we received countless compliments from our guests about how fun, engaging, and skilled Joe was. His presence and energy truly took our reception to the next level and played a huge role in making the day unforgettable.

We couldn’t recommend DJ Joe Pet and A Beat Away Entertainment more highly. If you’re looking for a DJ who is organized, personable, and knows how to create an amazing atmosphere, Joe is the one.

Great DJ!!!

We had an amazing experience with Joe. He was professional, knew how to keep the crowd dancing, and respected all of our limits. I highly recommend just letting him do his thing - we had guests of all ages and everyone was happy with the choices. I LOVE to dance so the music was the most important to me and Joe did not disappoint.
Really cool guy, super nice and easy to work with, I cannot say enough good things.

Thank you to DJ Joe Pet for an amazing DJ for our wedding.

Thank you to DJ Joe Pet for an amazing DJ for our wedding. He and his team worked to set up multiple sound systems in the garden ceremony, museum for cocktail hour and the reception hall at Heritage Museums and Gardens. Great music and interactive for dance floor. The dinner music was great and not too loud, we got multiple compliments on the dancing and dinner music. Great to work with. Booked Joe via CapeTunes.

Best of both worlds experience!

I wanted to take a moment to recommend Joe Pet/A Beat Away Entertainment… it’s not too often you can find an excellent, reputable musician, who also is a DJ. Joe knows music and he knows how to work a crowd. He seamlessly played the best music for our guests keeping them dancing all night! Coincidentally, I have had many opportunities working with him on a business level as an event manager at Danversport. His ability to balance professionalism with a personal touch truly sets him apart. We couldn’t recommend him more highly. Joe is a perfect choice for any event whether it be a shower, wedding or birthday party! PS: ask him to bring his drums!!! Amazing. It’s no wonder he’s played with some of the best bands we know… specifically the Joe Perry Project! Joe knows how to work a crowd no doubt!

A Beat Away is the way🎤🎵🎸

We hired DJ Joe and his amazing videography team for our wedding in August, and we couldn’t have been happier! From the start, they were incredibly professional, accommodating, and brought so much energy to our celebration. Even with last-minute planning changes, they adapted seamlessly and ensured everything ran smoothly. DJ Joe kept the dance floor alive all night, and the videography crew captured every magical moment perfectly. We received countless compliments from our guests and will cherish the memories forever. Highly recommend them for any event! A Beat Away should be your only way for any music, photo or videographer needs !!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. You truly went above and beyond and we are grateful to have had you as part of our special day. We highly recommend A Beat Away Entertainment to anyone looking for a DJ who knows how to make an event extraordinary.

An amazing experience we will never forget.

My wife and I spent a long time looking for different forms of singers and DJs. It was a long and difficult process dealing with so many different personalities. We finally came across Joe and it was an instant perfect fit. Joe has a great personality and knowledge of different music genres. Even our family and friends remarked we picked the right one. We highly recommend DJ Joe for someone's wedding or any special event. His professionalism is amazing.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
