how it started

Hi, I'm Chasen - a lifelong musician, performer, and lover of celebrating life and love.  Music is my whole life. Since pre-school, I sang in theater and loved listening to music on the radio. In elementary school(80s), my DJ career prep began with mix-tapes, recording my breaks like a radio DJ.  Even calling local radio DJs for hours overnight, creating friendships with real Tulsa radio DJs and producers. In middle school, I picked up the trombone and began learning piano. I was 13.

At my first junior high dance, I met my future mobile DJ mentor and later worked with him  at Oklahoma State University.  After graduating, I jumped into the weddings and special event industry full time. What I discovered was few knew what they were doing.
(I can say that now. They're all gone)

Even though I was "just a DJ", clients weren't booking me to "be their music". 
They wanted me to guide and prepare them in advance and also entertain at their event. They needed someone who understood what was actually happening, cared about their goals, and could manage everything and everyone accordingly.

PartyBox team members must show that understanding of what is required of them. Not just being technically proficient, but an educated musician, a trained speaker, and a pro-active thinker who loves creating special moments but doesn't seek the limelight.

I'm proud of our ever-growing, constantly improving, talented musicians who aspire to provide their very best at each event. 
You deserve it.
