"I can't recommend Joe more highly. Before the wedding, he was in contact consistently, ensuring he was all over the details for a big day. He turned up early on the day and was set up and ready to go with no issues. The entire evening was so much fun. He nailed our wedding playlist. He even let me serenade my wife halfway through." — Warick O. 

About

Joe Barrs has always possessed a genuine passion for music and performing, having attended two of Sydney’s most prestigious performing arts high schools. Having a sweet melodic voice and a penchant for the guitar, this was his focus until he was 17. This changed when he moved to England to live with his cousin for a period. In a flat in South London, Joe was first introduced to the art of turntablism. Joe was instantly enamoured by the art and set out to cultivate his craft, flipping records and

FAQ

I love this question. Having a point of difference is a minimum standard I've worked on my whole career. And having a point of difference is what separates someone or something from the normal. So here are three of my points of difference. 

Hard worker.

  • When you book me as your wedding DJ, I will go above and beyond to ensure I'm not underdelivering on our arranged expectations of each other, and I will work hard to ensure you and your guests are having a fantastic time. 

Communication is the key

  • I appreciate having an initial consultation (vibe check) with clients, then three months before the event check-in, and finally a wedding day check-in with either yourselves or the wedding planner. We'll run through your plans, dreams, expectations and critical outcomes. 

Love

  • It might sound cheesy, but I love what I do and only want to spread positive vibes. Life can be a grind, and I want to be a part of your special day. I remember my wedding day, the happiest day of my life. I will work with you to make sure yours is also. 

10 reasons:

  1. Less time is spent organising what music to play, asking for favours and following up with people.
  2. Peace of mind. 
  3. Great sound quality.
  4. Massive library of music for song requests.
  5. Reliability.
  6. Better vibes.
  7. Less stress.
  8. Technical expertise.
  9. You’ll be able to hear the speeches (wireless mic).
  10. Our DJs are also better at picking the best songs to keep the dance floor pumping.

Ceremony:

  • Background music while guests arrive.
  • Wireless microphone for celebrant or pastor.
  • Walking down the aisle.
  • Signing marriage documents.
  • Leaving the aisle.

Canapes and Drinks:

  • Background music for guests.

Reception:

  • Music while guests arrive.
  • Bridal party entrance.
  • Wireless microphone for the MC.
  • Music during meals.
  • Wireless microphone for speeches.
  • Cake cutting.
  • First dance.
  • Father/Daughter and Mother/Son Dance.
  • …this is usually when it kicks off!
  • Bouquet and Garter Toss.
  • Farewell.

I've been collecting music my whole career spanning 20 years. Plus, I have access to whizzbang software that allows me to find music on the fly (as long as there's a decent Wi-Fi connection). So, I can play anything and everything. I'm what's known as an open-format DJ. 

  • Top 40, house, rock, pop, dance, country, RnB, hip hop, etc.
  • You can also make song requests.
  • It’s all about giving people a great night!
  • If there's a type of music or song you don't like, I won't play it!

I can’t recommend Joe more highly. Prior to the wedding, he was in contact consistently making sure that he was all over the details for a big day. He turned up early on the day and was set up ready to go with no issues. The entire evening was so fun and he nailed them wedding playlist. He even let me serenade my wife halfway through. I highly recommend Joe with no hesitation.

Thanks, Warwick! You, your friends and your family are such lovely people to work with, and it was an absolute pleasure! What an awesome day, and thanks for the opportunity.

What a gun. Can't recommend Joe enough if you're into everyone storming the dancefloor and having a blast. We were fortunate enough to have him DJ at our wedding after party - it remains hands down the best party we have ever thrown and in no small part to the atmosphere and bangers Joe brought with him. 10/10

What a day! Thanks for the unlimited beers and the opportunity to play fun music for everyone to enjoy! The highlight was Sandstorm! haha. Cheer Ben & Cass!

Joe is an absolute legend. Our initial DJ cancelled on us last minute so Joe came to the rescue at short notice. Lucky for us! Not only is he a genuinely fantastic person, but he's friendly, upbeat and super relaxed (which made our wedding day a breeze). He took our music suggestions and created a stellar playlist for us - and had every single person in the tent on their feet, dancing the night away. If he wasn't there as our DJ, we would have invited him back as our guest. Hire this dude - your wedding/event/whatever will be FAR better off because of it. We salute you Joe! xx Bronte & Jamie

Joe Barrs DJ'd our wedding in Oct 23 he absolutely CRUSHED IT! He read the room perfectly, he hit all the queues we gave him and most importantly he had the dance floor pumping the entire time. Plus he was a breeze to deal with in the planning stages, nothing was too much of an ask. If you're looking for a DJ, look no further because Joe is your man.

Joe was everything and more for our wedding day. He was so easy to chat to about what songs we requested and put together such an incredible playlist for the reception. There wasn’t a single person sitting down towards the end of the night! Everyone was dancing and complimenting us on how great Joe was. It wouldn’t have been such a fun night without him. HIGHLY recommend Joe if you’re getting married or have any event where you want people up dancing and singing along to every song!! :)
