Mike Kane

How I got started: Music has always been a big part of my life: from playing guitar in bands when I was younger, to DJing parties in college, to DJing professionally today. Before, becoming a professional wedding DJ, I started out my career as a social worker where I spent a lot time working with people in difficult situations. I learned from this experience that I love listening to people and helping them find solutions to the issues they’re facing.

My entire life, I have always enjoyed spending time with friends and getting everyone to have an amazing time. I have now been DJing weddings for 15 years and I truly feel that I found my calling. Nothing compares to being a part of someone’s wedding. It is such an important day in a person’s life and I love helping to make it special.

When I’m not DJing: I love spending time with my wife, Ashley and our son, David. In my spare time, I love to be outside, hit up some karaoke, have a bon fire, and binge-watch Netflix.

In My Headphones: Fitz & The Tantrums, Lizzo, Third Eye Blind, Leon Bridges, Frank Sinatra, Hall & Oates, and anything from the 80’s!

My Top Five Favorite Floor Fillers:

“Uptown Funk” – Bruno Mars
“Give Me Everything” – Pitbull
“I Wanna Dance With Somebody” – Whitney Houston
“Get Down On It” – Kool & The Gang
“Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” - Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell

Testimonials-Mike

“Amplified Events was one of the easiest no brainier parts of our day to do. Rereading the "About This Vendor" is so accurate it is almost ridiculous. The professionalism, and expectation is so under estimated. Mike did such an incredible job for my wife an I. At the end of the night so many people came and mentioned how good the music was. Thanks for everything Mike!”

- Joe

“Mike was amazing to work with. He was prompt in communication. We were pretty particular about the type of music we wanted (mainly bangers) and Mike delivered. Everyone was blown away with his transition and the jams he played. We were thoroughly impressed. I don't think we could be any happier.”

- Vu

“Mike was amazing! He listened to every want/need we had. He did a great job controlling our crazy crowd all night! Everyone was out on the dance floor until the last possible second, and his Instagram printing was a huge hit! We would 10/10 use Amplified Events and will be telling everyone we know to choose him when they need a DJ.”

- Rachel

“My husband and I had very specific music ideas for our wedding, and so we were on the lookout for someone who could accommodate us and our weird tastes. Mike is that person! From the first phone call, to the last dance, Mike was professional, fun, and very receptive!”

- Sara

“We wanted a DJ that would keep our crowd on the dance floor all night and that is exactly what we got, Mike was so good at reading our crowd and kept our guests dancing until we basically had to kick them out! HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Amplified Events for your wedding or event, you won't be disappointed.”

- Courtney

“Simply put, he is the best DJ I've ever known and one of the most honorable and dedicated men you'll ever meet. Mike understands the importance of the moment yet knows how to have fun. Between the first dance and the dance-off, Mike knows when to be serious and when to be silly, and fosters an atmosphere that enables both and creates memories that will last a lifetime.”
