Bio
DJ Tunez musical exposure started from listening to his father’s vast collection of Afro music. From the beginning, he was captivated by the effect music had on people, as well as the different emotions it evoked. Brought up in a household with both African and Caribbean influences, he was exposed to a multitude of musical genres.
At the age of 11 Tunez learned how to play the drums, ultimately playing for the church band. It was at this time where he learned how to mix music, accompanying his father to different church events where he provided speakers and played music. He later went on to DJ at churches, as well as other small events on his own. He cultivated this hobby for years, which led to the manifestation of his skill set eventually leading others to take notice of his talent. As of today, he has toured the east coast performing at events from Atlanta to New England.
From sell out events at Amazura Concert Hall to private international destination events, DJ Tunez simply gets the job done. His growing brand is a testament to the resume he has built for himself. DJ Tunez takes his listeners on a journey from beginning to end, traveling musically from one continent to the next with seamless transitions. You can catch him at any event spinning music that educes his audience to display the new infectious dances sweeping Europe, Africa, the Caribbean and the United States. When he’s not performing in nightclubs or private events, Tunez can usually be found in the studio collaborating with different national/international artists to produce a sound that is becoming undeniably more popular.
