Started in 2015, DJ&M was founded for one reason, taking dance floors to the NEXT LEVEL.

DJ&M emphasizes making your day special.
The way we make that happen is through our excellent music collection tailored to your request, and our stage presence.

DJ&M was founded by Mike Bailey and Jake Mondragon. Quickly after meeting, Mike and Jake realized that they each have a passion for the entertainment industry and live performance. Each having years of experience in performing live music, management, and event booking, they decided to combine forces and start DJ&M.

Jake grew up in Memphis Tennessee, which is a major hub for music and entertainment. He began violin at age 6 and was classically trained up into his 20's. He started his DJ Career in 2006 as a wedding DJ, playing all throughout Memphis, Tennessee. After being in the wedding industry for four years, Jake moved into the electronic dance music scene in Memphis. It was there that he learned to create and run a successful business. While in Memphis, Jake started two electronic music and Hip-Hop event companies, each event drawing 500-2000 people. They brought in nationally known artists such as Waka Flocka Flame, Ying Yang Twins, and Afro Man. He has also worked hand in hand with Red Bull.

Mike studied Music Business at Illinois State University and graduated in 2014. Mike began piano at age 7 and his passion for music grew from there. While at school, he was a Management and Media intern at a major concert venue called The Castle Theatre, that saw national acts come through on a weekly basis. Mike has also been playing in and managing rock bands through out the midwest for the past 4 years. He has opened for bands such as New Politics, Reel Big Fish and Five Iron Frenzy. Through all of his experience, one thing is clear, Mike loves to put on a good show and see the crowd smile.
