If you're on the hunt for a wedding DJ/musician who will elevate your special day to unforgettable heights, look no further than Josh! From the moment we connected with him, it was evident that we were in for something extraordinary.
Working with Josh was an absolute delight. His infectious positive energy made every interaction a breeze, and his genuine enthusiasm for our vision was amazing. Josh isn't just a vendor; he's a collaborator, always going above and beyond to ensure that every detail is perfect. His flexibility and willingness to accommodate our requests truly set him apart.
And let's talk about talent – Josh is a triple threat! Whether he's behind the turntables, strumming his guitar, or serenading us with his soulful vocals, he mesmerized us and our guests from start to finish. His ability to read the room and curate the perfect playlist kept the dance floor packed all night long.
But it's not just his musical prowess that impressed us; Josh's organizational skills and clear communication throughout the entire planning process were invaluable. From our initial consultation to the final song of the night, he kept us informed and at ease every step of the way.
If you want your big day to be truly unforgettable, trust Josh to make it happen. We couldn't recommend him more highly! -

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Josh. Having him join us for our wedding day was one of the best choices we made for the day. Not only is he extremely talented, but he has a natural ability to connect with people - we had SO many guests share glowing feedback about his music and how nice it was to talk to him. Throughout the course of the day he seamlessly transitioned from acoustics for ceremony and cocktail hour to MC to DJ. He even learned our first song to play live - in a matter of weeks! Despite his overflowing calendar of bookings. If you have the luck of finding him on a weekend he is available, I highly recommend you book Josh for your special day. Thank you for everything, Josh!!! -

Josh was incredible and went above and beyond when it came to the logistics of our wedding! We had 3 different areas we wanted music and he provided all 3 set ups. He provided the acoustic music during dinner, which we LOVED and then DJ'd when the dancing started. Could not recommend Josh enough, so easy to work with and created the overall vibe for our wedding with music that we were looking for! If you're looking for an incredible musician, dj and beyond...Josh is your guy! We really couldn't recommend him enough! -

Josh made our wedding come to life! He was the absolute best one man show we could have ever hired. Josh learned 3 new acoustic songs for our ceremony, sang live at cocktail hour, and was the BEST MC and DJ throughout the entire night! Our dance floor was so hype! You don't realize how much a good MC makes a difference until you've lived through it and Josh is a true professional. Highly recommend! -

Albert Sent on 05/27/2025Fantastic Wedding Ceremony Musician
Luke Bellet, found through Josh Klaus, played guitar for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and I could not recommend him more! He went above and beyond to learn a very special song for the two of us to be played as our processional piece. He was very responsive, we had several chats during the planning process to make plans together and to help me with any questions I had along the way. Besides just being an all around friendly guy, he is a great musician and really made us feel excited over the pieces we chose! He was also wonderful in helping set up the microphone for our officiant and for some separate readings we had during the ceremony. Highly, highly recommend!! -

Alex Sent on 04/12/2025Excellent Artist, Above & Beyond Service
We can't say enough about Josh and the impact that he had for our day. He is a truly talented musician who can perfect almost any song you want played, and he even went above and beyond his typical services to provide a private performance with the groom for just the two of us. We could very easily feel how much he cared about our day and making it the best that it could possibly be.
Josh has a great energetic personality and he was a joy to work with from start to finish. Our communication with him was seamless and he was always responsive. We will be recommending him to all of our friends! -

Jonathon Sent on 04/04/2025Amazing experience!!!
We hired Josh to play the acoustic for our cocktail hour and for the first portion of our reception (including first dance) and he also MC'ed and DJ'ed the night as well. This was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! Josh did an incredible job and was hands down our favorite vendor to work with. He did an excellent job on all fronts and we received rave reviews from everyone in attendance. If he is available for the dates on your big day stop reading this and book him immediately! We heard about him because he also performed at my sister's wedding last year and it was the same story - massively entertaining and a huge hit! Great guy and he catered to all of our needs. Highly, highly recommend!!! -

Elena Sent on 03/27/2025Beautiful Voice and Amazing Energy - A Must Hire!
If you're looking for a kind, personable and extremely talented artist to play at your wedding, Josh is your guy! Our wedding planner, Danny at Hummingbird House, recommended Josh right off the bat, citing him as one of the best musicians in Austin to work with. Our communication with Josh was enjoyable, and his responses were always timely and to the point. Josh arrived early to set up on our wedding day and provided a very calming, joyful presence to our special day. He performed at the ceremony and cocktail hour, all songs I picked off of his song list that were absolutely amazing! Our guests all loved him and were so impressed by his talent - as was I. My only regret is not having him stay longer. I would highly recommend having Josh at your wedding! -

Janine Sent on 03/04/2025A total mood-setter!
We had no idea that you could get the best of both worlds - live music and a DJ set - in one vendor, but we came across Josh and the rest was history. It was important to us that our musician understood the vibe throughout the whole day, as we are not a particularly "dance-y" couple and didn't want anything to feel forced. Josh's ability to set the right tone at every step of the way us unparalleled: from soothing and romantic vocals before the ceremony, to a beautiful "pre-speeches" speech, to an upbeat DJ set that kept our most energetic guests wildly entertained, the vibe was perfect the whole day. Something to especially highlight is how he played a mix of songs that got both older and younger crowds on the dance floor; we loved looking over and seeing guests of all ages having a great time. Plus, he'll learn any song acoustically that you want for an extremely nominal fee, so we asked him to learn our processional song, which was absolutely beautiful. On top of all of his skills, he's also just a blast to be around and SO responsive - we actually thought the response we got from him when we first submitted an inquiry was automated because the turnaround was so fast! We received so many compliments about Josh, and we are so grateful he made the night as enjoyable for our guests as it was for us! -

I am a wedding planner (Bluebonnet Collective) and my clients and I hired Josh for both his live music and DJ services - I could not have been more impressed with our experience working with Josh. First of all, he is truly so talented and a joy to work with. His acoustic set for happy hour and for part of the dinner service was stunning. His DJ and MC skills were top notch and he has the dance floor vibing at all times.
Not only was Josh great to work with day of, but he was also extremely helpful and communicative ahead of the big day. He helped my clients with song selection, guided them through some do's and don'ts based on his experience, and was great and listening and respecting their vision for their big day.
10/10 highly recommend Josh and we will most certainly be using Josh again for future clients. -

We had the BEST experience with Josh Klaus music for our wedding day!! Our amazing wedding planner connected us with Josh and he was able to provide us with Daniel who fit all our music needs and then some. We wanted piano music during our ceremony, and Daniel went above and beyond, even singing our exit song!! It was truly a magical experience, and we were so happy with how professional and courteous Daniel and Josh were. We had several conversations about our vision, and it far exceeded our expectations!! -

Josh made our wedding SO epic! We hired him to DJ and play live during cocktail hour and dinner, and he made the whole night so fun, entertaining, and stress free! He also ran sound during our ceremony, which was so appreciated. Since the wedding, the thing we hear the most was "Who was your DJ?? He was awesome!!" He fit the vibe and tone throughout the evening and was so lovely and easy to work with. We could not recommend him more highly! Hire Josh for your wedding!!! -

I could not recommend Josh enough for your wedding, or any event really. He is such a personable guy and amazing musician. We asked him to come to our New Orleans wedding after hearing him at a friend's Austin wedding. Josh felt like a wedding guest and vendor at the same time, in the best way! Both his acoustic set and DJ set are amazing, we got so many compliments from guests. My husband and I felt like he played the perfect DJ set personalized to us, but also played songs to please the crowd, while also respecting our requests (no line dances, etc). He had everyone dancing all night, and he even joined the dance floor at one point! We could not recommend him enough if you are looking for your music to be one of the most memorable parts of your wedding. He was also very easy to work with leading up to the wedding, organized, responsive, but also easy to arrange his requests. We love Josh! -

Josh was the perfect person to play for our wedding and reception. Him and his guitar added the exact vibes we were going for. We did not give him any songs to stay away from, just simply create a space for our guests to enjoy, and he did just that! Josh was so easy to communicate with and such a joy to be around during our wedding day. I cannot recommend him enough! He was incredible! -

Daniel added a great element to our wedding!! Not only did he DJ the dance party after dinner but provided live piano and vocals during the ceremony and cocktail hour. He has a fantastic voice and was fun to have at the wedding. Daniel was helpful in live music song selection as we just wanted a fun vibe but weren't quite sure what to do. Having the combination of live music with a DJ was a perfect fit for our wedding vision and budget. -

Josh is a must hire!! Not only was his voice of an angels when he did his acoustic set at my wedding rehearsal dinner, but his warm and bubbly personality made me feel as though I had known him for years. I was so impressed by him, his professionalism and his even his willingness to go above and beyond to help us MC our speeches too. Truly, such a phenomenal person and singer. You’d regret not him!

I booked Luke Bellet through Josh Klaus Music. Luke is talented and professional! He was open to learning new songs to fit our vision and very communicative in the planning process. We got a lot of compliments on the music at our wedding. He went above and beyond our expectations. We definitely recommend him for weddings and other social gatherings. -

Adriana Sent on 06/08/2024The #1 Wedding Singer/DJ in Texas
If you are looking for a live wedding singer, a wedding DJ, or even better BOTH... look no further than Josh! Josh sang for our ceremony and DJ'd our reception and both turned out absolutely perfect. Josh has the voice of an angel and was a perfect addition to our ceremony. He is willing to learn songs that aren't on his song list and it made our ceremony all the more special. When people say music can make or break the reception, they mean it! Without Josh, our reception would've been dull. He genuinely kept everyone dancing all night! We highly recommend that you hire Josh for all of your wedding music needs, he will not disappoint you or your guests! -

Josh's selection for 'Best of Weddings 2024' by the Knot is no fluke! We hired him to serenade our ceremony, set the mood during cocktails, and serenade our first dance. Then, seamlessly transitioning to DJ, he kept the dance floor alive! Josh's talent is matched only by his contagious energy. Our guests raved about the unique vibe he curated. He was even willing to learn the song that I walked down the aisle too! Josh is the epitome of wedding entertainment. We wholeheartedly endorse him -

Sam W. Sent on 12/19/2023THE Musician/DJ you need to book in Austin or fly to your Venue!
This is the DJ you want, I'd book him while you can!
The City of Austin Director of Music recommended him and now we know why. He made the wedding reception/dinner/dancing so much fun with his energy and he has an amazing voice. He ticked all the boxes and does it on his own: Plays music, sings, DJs, MCs, sets up in multiple locations, and just brings amazing energy to the event.
I still have so many people reaching out saying how great he was and if they can get his contact information. He also learned a song for one of our first dances in a couple weeks.
On top of all of this you'd think he'd be a fortune to book, but he is more than reasonable. -

Meagan Sent on 11/21/2023The perfect well-rounded music vendor
I really don’t even know where to start or have the words to describe how perfect hiring Josh for our wedding weekend was. I wanted something fun and different for music for our ceremony and after looking at all options I couldn’t get the elegance and calmness of Josh’s voice and music out of my head. I knew I needed him to sing for our ceremony. He was so incredibly easy to work with and took all of our requests and accommodated. He was fun and felt like our biggest fan throughout the weekend! He made us feel like this wasn’t just another wedding for him and he actually was excited to be there and make magic for our day. When planning our rehearsal dinner we were trying to figure out did we just want to make a playlist or have someone there to dj/emcee speeches. We reached out to Josh and he was happy to DJ and emcee for us! It was SO fun to have him there both days. HE REALLY CAN DO IT ALL!!! Highly highly recommend Josh for all your music needs for your events and wedding and I will continue to recommend him for time to come. Thank you so much for being a part of our big weekend! -

We felt so lucky to have Josh provide the music for our wedding!! He's a mega talent and was definitely a highlight of the day. He learned multiple songs on the guitar for the ceremony and was a spectacular DJ that kept the dance floor pumping the entire night. Guests were raving about how talented and fun he made the night. I'd highly recommend booking Josh for your wedding or event, he's amazing!

Kelli Sent on 04/18/2023You NEED Josh at your wedding!
tl;dr - Stop looking for other entertainment vendors and just book Josh. Just do it. Hell, book your entire wedding around him - he's worth it! I found Josh in a roundabout way.
I was looking for a signage vendor, and one vendor I was interested in had Josh perform at her own wedding. After looking at a few videos, I was VERY intrigued. I had already reached out to a handful of DJs, but I knew that the combination of acoustic performance + DJ services would be perfect for our wedding. This is also very unique, from what I can tell, and helps bridge the gap between a typical DJ and a full-on band, the latter of which may not be desired for certain reasons, including budgetary ones.
Josh responded quickly and after a phone call, we were all set. He was extremely amenable to our need to reschedule our wedding due to F1 (boo!), which we really appreciated. As wedding time approached, he was very responsive and helpful in terms of both guiding us in making any final entertainment decisions, but also listening to what we were looking for.
On the day of the wedding, from our perspective, everything went perfectly. Josh performed acoustic for our pre- and post-ceremony cocktail hours, as well as for the processional and dinner. He then DJ'd our first dances and the reception. He also provided MC services throughout, and he did so with aplomb. He brings a spectacular energy to the dancefloor, which we loved because we had a more "elder millennial" crowd who needs more liquid courage to get the dance moves going. I can't tell you how many people complimented Josh to us on the night of the wedding and afterward - he has been, by far, the most reviewed vendor we had. He is also just really nice and really fun, which is important for a wedding team.
SO... just do it! Book Josh! You won't regret it and your wedding will be better for it!
