About James

James is a third-generation DJ. He grew up in Paterson, New Jersey, watching his uncles work local venues, including a nightclub his grandfather, also a DJ, owned and ran, and he first stepped behind the turntables at one of his uncle’s sets.

He performed in theater productions in high school, which is where the comfort on a mic comes from, and he moved to Charlotte and joined ATG to bring that energy to your event.

As your DJ and MC he brings the family trade with him: reading the room, keeping the music clean and the dance floor full, and keeping your introductions and announcements clear and on time.

Like everyone on the ATG team, James plans your event with you ahead of time in our online planning portal.
