Mike’s DJ Bio (finally…)

The local dancers in Austin already know that I’m also a DJ, but I always forget to put it up here so everyone knows. Well, now it’s up on the about Mike page. I love spinning tunes for dancers. It’s always exciting to introduce people to the music that really gets me [...]

Plus, they’re totally married. How cute is that?
