About

My name is Claude Sawyer. I am the owner and operator of LaBOOM Entertainment. I started my DJ career at WQKE in Plattsburgh back in 1998. I DJ'ed parties and other events in the SUNY Plattsburgh area. When I graduated from college I took a break from the DJ industry. Fast forward to 2006. When I was planning my own wedding, I spoke with many local DJ's and noticed a disturbing trend. Most (not all) of the DJ's I talked to seemed more interested in their own agenda than they were in MY wedding. I was warned that if I picked the music the wedding would be a disaster. One very prominent DJ told me "the minute you start picking the music, my guarantee of a good party goes out the window." I was treated like I had no idea what good music was. They assumed that they knew more than I did. I realize that the job of a DJ is to keep the party going and to ensure that everyone has a good time. I am also aware that certain songs have special meanings to certain people. To just exclude a client's requests would be a disservice. We finally found a DJ that would work with us and the wedding was a success. After my experience I realized it was time to get back to work. I wanted to create a DJ service that put the client first. You will NEVER see any advertisements for my company at your event. I am not there to advertise. I am there to provide entertainment for your guests. I provide a professional service with a professional presentation. The best advertisement I can offer is a great DJ performance. The majority of my wedding clients saw me at one of their friend's weddings. There is nothing more gratifying for me than to have a packed dance floor from the first song to the last. I am based in the Albany, NY market but I am willing to travel.

Awesome DJ

We absolutely loved working with LaBoom Entertainment for our wedding. DJ Claude was so easy to work with. He made the planning process a breeze and we really appreciated that he reached out to us prior to the day to make sure it all went smoothly. The music for the ceremony and throughout the entire night was great! He helped the night flow smoothly. We highly recommend!

Claude was a great DJ

Claude did a great job letting us know what was going to happen and when and helped us make sure everything went smoothly. Played great music all night! Very responsive the whole time and easy to talk to if you have any questions.

Just hire him!

Claude was truly the best DJ I’ve ever seen at a wedding. Our dance floor was filled for the entire night and there was not one moment where people were not out there dancing and enjoying themselves. Several of our guests even complimented the music and dancing after the wedding day! We were a covid couple scheduled to get married in 2020, and Claude worked with us while we postponed and rescheduled several times. He is very professional, responsive, and reasonably priced for all that he has to offer. Seriously, just hire him and you won’t need to worry!

Claude is exactly the type of professional DJ I like to work with as a marriage officiant. He checked in with me the moment I arrived to collaborate. His music and timing for the ceremony were perfect, as were his selections in getting the party started. The couple said he came highly recommended, and it's clear that reputation is well deserved.
