Dee Jay Silver isn’t your average DJ. The DJ/remixer/producer has become one of the most sought after DJs over the past 15 years, performing at premier venues in virtually every major market in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. The groundbreaking performer has thrilled millions with his high energy, open-format, party rock style of DJing and unique ability to blend all types of music from hip-hop and rock to house and country for crowds of all sizes. The Texas native has been traveling the world playing every kind of event and venue from headlining the largest nightclubs and pool parties, high-profile celebrity parties and exclusive private events to massive sporting events, award shows, major music festivals and arena tours and all that’s in between.

“When I play, I play to the crowd! I let the crowd dictate where the party goes. I always want to step off stage with them wanting more! I want to play the music they want to hear, in a way they’ve never heard it before,” shares Silver. He always wants to make sure the crowd leaves with a unique experience every time.

Silver began DJing while attending college in Arkansas and later moved to Springfield, MO where, while working as a doorman for a club, his interest peaked and he began opening up the dance floor until the headlining DJ would come on. “One gig turned into the next,” he shares of his early beginnings. “Back in the day, you didn't have computers, YouTube, or schools to learn how to DJ. If you were going to DJ, you had to learn from another DJ. They’d say, ‘I'll take you under my wing, but this is what you're going to do.’ Basically, you're going to be my whipping boy for a couple of years [laughs].”

His sound has organically evolved throughout his career. “Being up in the Midwest, we looked up to guys like Bad Boy Bill, Alex Peace, Richard Humpty Vission, DJ Irene, and all of those cats in the Chicago area. I'd buy anything they put out. That was where it started for me. It was the hard house from Chicago. Back then, I was playing more hip-hop, house music, and rock. Then, it progressed.

“Growing up in Texas, country music was all I ever heard. I was very versed in country music, so I've always mixed it in. I'm so happy to see that ‘Country Remix’ is actually a genre now. Music and DJing to me are about being creative and relating to your crowd. No matter what song it is, people will dance if it's presented right. If they're familiar with a song, that's what makes them more comfortable to have a better time.”

In 2013, Silver signed a recording contract with RCA Nashville, where he was the first DJ to be signed to a major Nashville label.  That year, he released a remix EP, Country Club featuring creative and rhythmic country mash-ups of some of the format’s most popular and beloved artists, including Alabama, Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Jake Owen, and Love and Theft.  

Since April 2014, Silver has also been the host of a nationally syndicated weekly radio show called “The Country Club with Dee Jay Silver.” Each week, the show features up-tempo mixes and mash-ups of hits from country’s biggest stars and newcomers, with an infusion of unique rhythms as well as tracks from other genres. Almost 60 stations, including some of the leading country and iHeartMedia radio stations across America, air the show every Friday and Saturday nights via Compass Media Networks.

During the summer of 2016, Silver released his first original single, “Just Got Paid.” The infectious ode to the weekend features vocals from indie singer-songwriter Austin Webb, who co-wrote the song with Silver in Nashville. And on March 31, 2017, Silver released his new electronic dance music single “Made To Do,” featuring vocals from Golden (aka Tyrone Carreker, singer/songwriter/producer/guitarist for Sam Hunt). The song—written by Silver—marks his first independent release and first song for the dance/Top 40 charts.

Dee Jay Silver has shared the stage with some of biggest artists in the world. Beyond touring extensively with Jason Aldean for the last 7 years as the country superstar’s resident DJ (including this year’s “They Don’t Know” Tour), the non-stop DJ has performed alongside Brad Paisley, Luke Bryan, Rascal Flatts, Eric Church, Cole Swindell, Tyler Farr, Thomas Rhett, Kip Moore, Kid Rock and many more. He’s appeared at many major music festivals, including the CMA Music Festival, Rock The South, Faster Horses, FarmBorough, Watershed, LakeShake, Route 91 Harvest as well as the iHeartMusic Festivals in Las Vegas and Austin. Additionally, Silver has performed for many major national events including the Super Bowl, MLB All-Star Game, NASCAR races, National Finals Rodeo, football games for the Dallas Cowboys and Tennessee Titans, NCAA National Championship, Spring Break,  the Academy of Country Music Awards (ACMs), the American Country Awards (ACAs) and more.

When not on tour or at one of his many appearances, the Nashville resident also hosts multiple residencies in Las Vegas this year: at the Foundation Room at Mandalay Bay and the Rehab Pool at the Hard Rock Hotel, for his third year at the famed pool party.

Odds are the in-demand producer will be at an arena, amphitheater, stadium, club, pool or festival near you. Look for more original music from DEE JAY SILVER to be released soon.
