For the past decade, my blend of live sax with DJ sets has made a lasting impact at high-end events worldwide, combining the versatility of a DJ with the appeal of a live musician.

I'm Tim Lacatena, a Los Angeles-based DJ and Saxophonist. I’ve DJ’d hundreds of weddings worldwide—including a wedding at Villa Medici in Rome for an Italian celebrity—plus weddings in Sardinia (Italy), the Dominican Republic, NYC, San Francisco (Ferry Building), Newport (Marble House), Aspen, Telluride, and all across Southern California. With over a decade in high-end events, I've DJ’d for Super Bowl LVII, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, Google, Gucci, Adidas, Porsche, BMW, Space Center Houston (NASA), New Orleans Jazz Fest (Sazerac House), The Emmys, and opened for Alanis Morissette as DJ/saxophonist.

Here’s a review from a wedding I DJ’d recently—the full text is also copied below.

Review: “We are still on cloud nine after our wedding, and one of the biggest reasons is DJ Tim! From the moment the reception started, he had the perfect energy, flow, and vibe — and don’t even get us started on his saxophone playing. It was absolutely mind-blowing! The way he weaved it into the music created such a cool, dynamic atmosphere that took the party to a whole new level. Tim has an unbelievable gift for reading the room — every song felt perfectly timed, every transition seamless. He knew exactly when to turn it up, when to slow it down, and how to keep everyone engaged. He didn’t just play music — he created an experience. We had guest after guest come up to us to say how amazing he was — literally every single person had something great to say. People were dancing who never dance. The energy never dipped once all night. My wife and I could not be happier with how everything turned out. Tim truly exceeded every expectation and was a huge part of making our night so unforgettable. If you’re even thinking about hiring him — do it. Best decision we made!” - Tiffany and James | Huntington Beach, CA
