About

It all started on the mean streets of Bon Air a little more than thirty years ago. As Terry and the rest of the Steelers rose again as champions, DJ Underdog entered the world kicking and screaming. Often when these cries became too harsh, it was music that would quiet the heavy crying. Music filled my house and childhood. Sounds of the radio and our record player often played for the members of my house, and surrounding neighbors. As a child my love for music often got me into a world of trouble. One example could be showing the babysitter how to scratch records, although some may say destroy would be a better description of that event. This “problem” would continue into my teenage years as you could find me running home no matter what I was doing so I could tape music videos. Although my mom would tell you that I was actually taping over her shows. Music has always been a big part of my life. Isn’t it funny how you can associate a special time, event, or moment with music? In 2003, I got an opportunity to put my love for music to the test as I began to “dj” local bars, parties, and weddings. In the years that have followed I have been lucky enough to be a part of many people’s special memories. I hope to continue to be a part of many more events, and I can continue to do something that’s always made sense to me, PLAY MUSIC!!!

Look No Further- DJ Underdog Was Awesome!

Look no further, DJ Underdog absolutely killed it at our wedding! He was a phenomenal dj but also a thorough and organized emcee for the entire wedding. He kept everyone right on schedule so that we could get through all of our dances and speeches in a timely manner to leave plenty of time for the dance floor. He also took the time to discuss our plans over zoom prior to the wedding to make us feel comfortable with the timeline and activities. He even made a personalized mash up for our walk out songs that was greatly appreciated. He goes above and beyond and multiple people at the wedding came up to us complimenting our dj. 

Highly rated from our experience!

The Best DJ 10/10

Joe aka DJ Underdog was so kind, professional, and organized throughout the entire wedding planning process. We would recommend him to anyone getting married or having an event! He was a fantastic DJ and had the dance floor packed all night. Our guests have been raving about how good the music was. We are so lucky that he was available to DJ our wedding. 10/10 DJ!

DJ Underdog is the BEST!

DJ Underdog (Joe) was the DJ for my sister’s wedding 3 years ago. We had such an amazing time that I knew I had to hire him if I got married! Joe DJ’d our wedding on July 9, 2022 and made our reception so much fun! Prior to the wedding, Joe took the time to go over all of the reception logistics with me (pronunciation of names, order of events, song choices, etc.) to make sure everything was perfect and ran smoothly. He also took the time to curate a reception playlist based on the songs and genres of music that my husband and I like! At the reception, Joe made sure that everything ran smoothly so that we did not need to worry about anything. We had so much fun at the reception and so did our guests! We have gotten so many compliments about the music. Everyone was having fun and dancing which made us so happy! Joe is so talented and such a great person. If you are lucky enough to work with DJ Underdog, you and your guests will have the best time ever! I cannot recommend Joe enough and he will always be my go-to DJ for future events!

DJ Underdog is hands down the best wedding DJ in the city. I have seen him play countless Wedding Receptions and as a Wedding Professional, I even booked him for my own reception. If you want a Organized Professional DJ, but also someone FUN, enthusiastic, and who not only knows how to get the party started, but can keep it going all night, then call Joe. You will not be disappointed.
