Kelton Higgins – DJ & Audio Engineer

KC is amazing! He DJ’ed our company Holiday Party and everybody has been requesting him every since. We already plan on using him for our 2017 party. He kept the crowd energetic and moving.

We hired KC as our wedding DJ after a referral from a friend. Our friend’s recommendation was spot-​on. We met with him beforehand to get a feel for his music taste and were impressed at his professionalism. He was polite, friendly, easy to talk to and clearly paid attention to our requests and preferences. He provided us with a shared spreadsheet that helped us select and organize our wedding music. He took it from there, using the spreadsheet and shared Spotify playlists to play songs that kept everyone out on the dance floor all night. Not only was the music great, but KC worked with our wedding day coordinator to ensure that the event itself went smoothly and that everyone was able to hear our vows and all of the wedding toasts. We’ve gotten so many compliments on DJ KC and would highly recommend him!

DJ KC (Kelton Higgins) DJ’ed my wedding a little over a month ago and knocked it out of the park. It was very important to my wife and I that our guests be on their feet and having a good time. KC did not dissapoint and had all of my crazy friends dancing all night long. In fact, we extended the reception another hour and a half (kind of last minute) and he was completely cool with the extended time and didn’t even charge us! That was very refreshing as it seems like everyone only sees dollar signs when the word «wedding» is mentioned. If you are looking for a great wedding DJ, or just a great DJ in general, look no further!

I had the sublime pleasure of hearing KC with a group of friends at a bar in Washington last night. You’ve never seen someone infuse passion into their trade as KC does. We danced our faces off.

Wow! Where do I begin? Kelton «KC» was our DJ, the perfect fit for our Greek/​Spanish wedding on June 27, 2015 in Baltimore! He listened to what we wanted and did NOT want played at our wedding ceremony and reception… and it was perfect. It takes talent to mix and blend Top 40, Spanish, Electronic, Hip-​Hop and Greek music (we didn’t think it would be possible… Man, we were wrong). KC had everyone on the dance floor the ENTIRE NIGHT (ages 6 – 80). The best part was after 6 hours of non-​stop, seamless transitions of amazing music… No one wanted to leave. Guests were yelling, «one more song, one more song»… It was fantastic!!! He was so professional, set-​up and ready to go earlier than expected. I want to throw another party just to have the chance to work with him again. Thank you KC for allowing us to have the most amazing and memorable wedding!!!

KC was our DJ for our recent June 20, 2015 wedding. I couldn’t wait to write a review for him because he was absolutely amazing! Our family loves to dance and KC really made them feel comfortable and had our guests dancing from the very start to the very end! He was so friendly and easy to talk with. Being the bride I was extremely nervous, but having KC there was such a relief and really made me feel much calmer and able to have fun and not worry about my guests. Thank you again KC! And I hope we will be able to use you again in the future for another event!

Going into our wedding, we knew that music and dancing was one of our biggest priorities. At weddings we’d attended in the past, we always gauged how great a wedding was by how long people stayed on the dance floor. So going into the DJ selection process, we felt a lot of pressure to make the perfect choice — and in hindsight, we could not have made a better choice! Not only was KC incredibly easy to work with, he was personable, friendly, and completely open to our music choices and ideas. He provided multiple spreadsheets and planning documents from early on so we had plenty of time to think through our choices. When we got to the few weeks before the wedding, KC answered all of my questions in an incredibly timely manner, and provided us with additional ideas for music when we couldn’t make a decision for the last dance or mother/​son dance song. His demeanor the day –of was calm, fun, and flexible. He read the audience really well and changed music to keep people dancing. He also was great about prompting us on the timeline so we could keep the night on track. The best thing I can say about KC is that we still had more than half our guests dancing at the end of the night!

I’ve been listening to KC DJ for years at clubs around DC, and he has a way of making a big club feel like a welcoming house party.
I contacted him to do the music at our wedding. It was terrific – he got everyone dancing, young and old, from song one, and mixed in all our personal favorites with crowdpleasers and kept the party going.
I knew him mainly from his dance nights where he mixes up some great rare vinyl tracks, so I was really impressed with the wedding and his ability to play a diverse set of music. He got everyone involved, even aunts and uncles who probably haven’t been to a club in decades. He played all the classics people wanted to hear, without relying on a bunch of obvious, corny wedding staples. And he did the MCing just right – kept everything on track, great guy to have around, with none of that thing where you have a weird stranger DJ hamming it up in the middle of your big day.
As for audio engineering, I’m not really an expert, but he has a huge selection of his own gear and has wired up a lot of new clubs around DC for big-​name owners, so definitely check him out if you want to set up a great-​sounding system in your bar or restaurant.

Kelton (he goes by KC) Dj’ed my wedding, and he was phenomenal. PHENOMENAL. Honestly, among the many people involved in my wedding, he was the friggin best (aside from my wife, who married me). He was better than my parents, better than the photographer, the wedding people at the hotel, my siblings, and the list goes on.
I remember, a little ways through the wedding night, after we had finished speeches/​food — i just looked at him and said «it’s all yours». And he just drove the night; our guests danced for hours afterward, and we didnt have a thing to worry about.
He gave us a very reasonable price, for high quality sound and just a great experience. He set the tone for the wedding; PATIENT, professional, and just a wonderful person to deal with. He listened to all our music requests, helped us organize the timing/​schedule of events during our wedding, and was THE BEST vendor we dealt with.
I rarely give out 5 star reviews, but i’d give him 10 if i could. He’s just that good of a dude to deal with amidst the crazy process of planning a wedding.
