PERSONALITY:
A first-class MC who is fun, professional, and creative. The event you’re planning is likely the only chance you’ll have to throw the party that you want, so I want to do everything I can to help you realize your vision of the perfect event. I can command a room easily, so whether you need someone to interact heavily with the crowd, or to be more low-key and in the background, I can fit into whatever vibe you want for your event.
WHY DID YOU BECOME A DJ?
At the age of 19, I was looking for a part time job that wasn’t the same old retail or food service job, and found I had a knack for entertaining people. Since then, it’s proved to be a great way for me to use my natural skills in helping people celebrate the most important events in their lives.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PARTY SONG?
Right now, it’s probably “Shut Up and Dance” by Walk the Moon. I use this song to open up the dance floor quite a bit, because it’s a high-energy song that lets the crowd know what they’re in for that night. Of course, each crowd is different, so really, any song that gets the crowd going is fine by me!
FAVORITE DJ MEMORY?
Several years ago, a woman who was a guest at a wedding told me that I had been the DJ for her wedding 10 years prior. She said that she and her husband still talked about how much fun I had made their wedding day. Her exact words were, “It was the best wedding reception I’d ever been to, and it just happened to be my own.” It’s one of the best compliments I’ve ever received.
WHAT DOES CUSTOMER SERVICE MEAN TO YOU?
I’m going to give you everything want, and nothing that you don’t. I’ll work with your other vendors, your venue, your catering, and your coordinator to make sure everyone’s on the same page, and that nobody misses anything important. Plus, I want you and your guests to have fun! I want everyone to have so much fun that they leave that night talking about how much fun they had.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT BEING A COMPLETE DJ?
I get to help people enjoy themselves. Whether it’s a wedding, company party, anniversary or birthday celebration, or playing for a public event like a Halloween party or robotics competition, my job is to help change the atmosphere through the music I play and the way I interact with the crowd. I love helping people laugh, relax, and have a great time.
DESCRIBE YOUR DJ STYLE.
First Class Presentation. I’m a master at working with crowds, and I love to help everyone relax and enjoy themselves. I can easily adjust my approach to a style that reflects the personality that you want for your event, be it highly energetic, laid-back, or even just music with no microphone presence at all. I love to get people interacting with each other, and I can help make that happen for you and your crowd.
FUN FACT:
I’m a seasoned entertainer in other areas—I’ve been a narrator and featured vocalist with a Trans-Siberian Orchestra tribute show, performed improv and stand-up comedy, and to flex my nerd cred, I’m also a tabletop RPG designer and Game Master, an avid board gamer, movie buff, and lifelong “Weird Al” Yankovic fan.
""Our DJ, Zach Lorton, kept the guests involved throughout the night and always knew what to play and when to get people dancing.""
""Zach was all-around a great DJ. Our NYE wedding was perfect and the soundtrack was a huge part of that. Zach worked with me on complicated requests for the ceremony music, got the crowd engaged in the reception festivities, and kept the dance floor packed all night. He orchestrated a midnight countdown that had all guests, young and old, locked arm in arm on the dance floor. Overall, Zach is a highly recommended DJ who takes pride in his work and conducts his business with a top level of professionalism. Thank you Zach.""
