Hi, I’m Johnny!

📍Philadelphia, PA

For me, DJing isn’t just about playing songs — it’s about creating experiences that people remember long after the night ends. Music is powerful - it’s driven my creative pursuits for most of my life and it’s my passion to share it with others.

I spent years on stage as the lead singer and songwriter for the Philadelphia indie rock band Petunia. Performing live taught me how to read a crowd, build rhythm, and shape the flow of an event from the first note to the last. Those same instincts guide every DJ set I play today — whether it’s a wedding, private party, or corporate event.

After acquiring a robust collection of records, I started curating vinyl-only sets throughout Philadelphia at Ortlieb’s, Kung Fu Necktie, and Urban Village. My collection spans an eclectic range — from funk and disco to dancehall, new wave, pop, and much more. I perform digitally as well!

Customization and collaboration with my clients are all part of the fun, and I love taking requests when it comes to the dance floor.

I’m also available to perform live music as a guitarist and singer — either solo or with a band.

In the end, I’m all about creating the right atmosphere for the moment and celebrating the joy that music brings to us all.
