BIO

Mixing like a champion for champions - DJ Jukebox is one of the most experienced, regarded and versatile DJs in Canada - from Club to Radio to Arena Stadium.

A pioneer in the industry - his passion to combine music with sports entertainment led Jukebox back to his alma mater McMaster University (Hamilton, Ontario), where in 2010 he became Canada’s first Official University Athletics DJ - performing in-stadium at McMaster University Football, Basketball & Volleyball games.
Since then he has risen to the highest Canadian University prestige - National Championships - twice DJing the USports Vanier Cup Canadian University Men’s Football National Championship (2017, 2016), three times DJing the USports Canadian University Men’s Volleyball National Championship (2023, 2018, 2016) and DJing the CIS/USports Canadian University Women’s Volleyball National Championship (2012).

Expanding beyond the University level to professional, Jukebox worked with the Canadian Elite Basketball League (C.E.B.L.) - starting during the pandemic as the host DJ of the 2020 C.E.B.L. Summer Series (djing 25 of 26 games). This was in a bubble setting being North Americas first professional league to return to play.  He continued with C.E.B.L. taking over as the Official DJ for his hometown team - the Hamilton Honey Badgers for the 2021 and championship winning 2022 seasons. 

FIBA and Basketball Canada sourced DJ Jukebox for all 24 games as the Official DJ of the 2018 FIBA Men U18 Americas Championship - Canada's inaugural time as host.
The Canadian Men’s Senior National Basketball team was propelled by the song styling of Jukebox during the Jack Donohue Classic (vs Belgium, 2011).

The Canadian Women’s Senior National Volleyball team (vs Netherlands, 2011) enjoyed his musical taste in pre-Olympic qualifying games.

DJ Jukeox has even dj'd on the fairway for golf! In 2021, Golf Canada approached him to be the Official DJ for Golf Canada at the Night Golf Experience.  

Currently his focus is performing in the sports arena, however Jukebox is not a stranger to clubs and radio.
First offered an opportunity at Elixir Nightclub (Hess Village, Hamilton ON) Jukebox was renowned for turning it into one of Southern Ontario’s longest residencies of over nine successful years. He headlined the largest party in Hamilton, ON - Hess Village Mardi Gras (2006, 2007) for over 15,000+ people and has DJ’d across Canada & USA.  Several American highlights include headlining at 21C Hotel Museum in Louisville, Kentucky and djing for over 10,000 people during The Cricket Wireless Campus Rail Jam at Arizona State University.

Rocking on the radio - it all began back in 1999 via CFMU 93.3FM with the R&B Mixshow “The Monday Night Bootycall”. Over the years DJ Jukebox has been heard on Toronto hit music station Z-103.5FM Live to Air party patrol broadcasts.

Sharing the stage, Jukebox had the opportunity to perform at concerts alongside a wide array of musical artists including Canadian rock legends The Tragically Hip, Canadian OVO rapper OB OBrien, reggae artist Sean Paul, and R&B singer Ne-Yo, amongst many others.

Doing what he loves and loving what he is doing, Jukebox is amazed he has yet to run out of University eligibility... "Djing at my alma mater for well over a decade is unreal, I am so thankful for this continued opportunity to fuse music and artistic empression curating a unique soundtrack live play-by-play. Creating an atmopshere that turns a game into an experience - amping up the home team and fans - is the WIN!"
