Danny Vasquez

I was introduced to DJing by my uncle who would perform at local private events.  At first it was fun to just tag along to watch people dance and sing along to their favorite songs.  I quickly learned that DJing was a bit of science and art all in one. At the age of 17 I played my first wedding and there I was introduced to a different type of event, people of all ages and backgrounds were in one place to celebrate by dancing.  In 1998 I moved to Santa Barbara from Riverside, where I began to play nightclubs and a local radio station. In 2009 I started Elite Disc Jockeys and no longer had a full-time day job.  I am grateful everyday for my business and only regret is not starting Elite sooner.
