AJ Smith – Your Personal DJ & MC Who Guarantees a Packed Dance Floor

High-Energy Weddings & Corporate Events with Seamless DJ Entertainment + Professional Photography

When I started this company, I wanted to bring all of the experience I had from earning my certificate in Audio Production Technologies at Mesa Community College, to the stage hand experience I gained from working for Lady Gaga, Bon Jovi, NBA Allstars, Elton John, to the 7 rock/metal bands I performed with as a drummer, singer, bass player, and guitar, and even working with the monitoring engineer for Jethro Tull at the Interlochen Center for the Performing Arts, including Box Scaggs and Michael Mcdonald, and Diana Ross. Now with 5 years of DJ experience, performing weekly, sometimes nightly, I have the skills to make your day unforgettable! It didn't just start there, I have performed in over 7 rock/metal projects, 11 years of professional voice lessons from Thomas Collett Vocals in Chandler AZ, and Mesa Community College Vocal Performance for classically trained singing. I have recorded full length rock albums and performed from Japan to Arizona, from karaoke in the Philippines to LA, and checked out almost every major music hub from Austin Texas, to Miami nightclubs, New York City, to San Francisco and Las Vegas. I have spent my life studying entertainment and have been a stage hand to the guy on the stage. I am fun, outgoing, but know how to get down to business when the client needs me.

Customer service, premium equipment, and real first hand experience as an audio engineer is what makes our company stand out as the top rated DJ in Northern Michigan. We always make the party happen, the show must go on!

Testimonials

What our clients say about their experience.

I highly recommend 1Wave DJs AJ for any occassions. Not just his music is awesome and up to date, he is also very accomodating and making sure everyone was having fun at our birthday party held last weekend. AJ has all the set up, cool lights and sound system that makes the party going. You can request music and he has it playing for you. He made our party way cooler and memorable.

Birthday Party

AJ tailored the music to the archery/outdoor group of people we were entertaining and did a great job of getting them excited about the show. Will use again if we're in the area!

Warrior Rising Fundraiser Event 2024

Ashley C. , Married on 09/09/2023 5.0 The Best!! AJ was super easy to work with, gave us the exact vibe we were hoping for!! We had people on the dance floor the whole night!!! Highly highly recommend!!

AJ was a wedding hero! Due to some really bad wedding planning on our part, we didn't have ceremony music until 2 weeks before our wedding... We reached out to 1Wave with not a lot of time before the Wedding day, he quickly responded and got us going. He had so many helpful documents that made planning our wedding music easy. But really what made this a 6/5 star experience was on the day of the wedding he jumped in and helped us with our dinner music and MC'ing some items post wedding (this was not originally planned, but really a huge help). Helpful notes if booking 1Wave DJs: They're super professional and well organized, you won't have to sweat on your event day. Once booking with them, you will have a little homework to make sure your preferences are noted, then they will have a prep call with you following that bit of light work.

Wedding/Gaylord Michigan

We had the privilege of having AJ do our wedding and I must say he was top notch! He played everything I had for basically the whole wedding ceremony to the reception. He had the guests enjoying every part of the day/night. If youre looking for someone to book, I highly recommend AJ. We couldnt be happier with everything he did for us! Banger after Banger! My body is still sore from dancing all night! Thank you again!

Irons, Michigan

AJ at 1Wave DJs offered straightforward planning (no stress for us), with clear communication of expectations and cost. He supported our audio for the ceremony (outdoors) and the reception. The dance floor was packed all night. Would recommend
