DJ Joey Blond
Joey found house music while attending college in Boston. Having grown up with drum circles on the beach of Cape Cod, he was drawn to the percussive rhythms and quickly began taking weekend trips to New York attending Vinyl/Arch, Limelight, Roxy, Twilo. After learning more about the relevance, culture, and history, he was inspired by a few friends who were DJs and returned to Boston with a couple turntables, a mixer and a bunch of vinyl.
Joey worked as a sound engineer mixing down tracks with live bands and got gigs DJing at house parties and some local Boston nightclubs while finishing school. Before graduating, he was offered a position for a tech giant on the west coast, where he moved and lived for a decade. He never strayed too far from the music, getting booked for several red carpet and corporate events.
It was while DJing an event celebrating the life of a friend back east, where Joey reconnected with close friends and made the decision it was time to come home. He moved back to NYC a year later and immersed himself in music again.
