DJ and MC entertainment for weddings, corporate events, private celebrations, and public events — led by a working musician who knows how a room should feel, and how to keep it moving. Based in Savannah, and available within about 100 miles along the Lowcountry coast, as well as in college towns such as Statesboro and Athens.
Most DJ pages sell volume. This one should sell taste, timing, and care.
I'm Demetri Chrissos, a Savannah-based musician, performer, and event professional. I come to the booth the same way I come to the stage: listening first. The goal is a night that sounds like you — the songs you love, the ones you'd rather skip, and a floor that fills because the music is reading the room, not fighting it.
I DJ and MC the event myself, and I can provide the professional sound, lighting, and staging the night needs. If someone in my network of DJs, musicians, artists, and production experts would serve you better, I'll say so and make the introduction. The consult is also a practical guide to the Savannah community and scene, especially if you're coming in from out of town or you're new to how things work here.
That musician's background matters. I perform across rock, jazz, R&B, gospel and neo-soul, funk, bluegrass, and EDM. As a keyboardist and singer with Unifya, a Savannah reggae-rock band with more than 1,000,000 streams on Spotify, I already spend my nights inside live rooms: hearing what works, what doesn't, and when to change the energy.
This is a good fit if you are:
A couple who wants a reception that feels personal, not generic — must-plays honored, do-not-plays respected, and formalities handled with ease.
Planning a corporate gathering, private celebration, or public event and want someone who can read a mixed-age room.
A planner, venue, or host who needs a reliable DJ and MC, and a clear point of contact — especially if you're unfamiliar with Savannah.
Hoping the person behind the music also understands live sound, lights, and staging, not just a playlist.
This may not be the right fit if you only need a speaker and an aux cable, or if you're shopping only for the lowest bid.
Every booking is scoped to your date, venue, and timeline. A typical engagement can include:
A planning conversation to understand the vibe, the guest mix, and the shape of the night
A process for must-play songs, do-not-plays, and any playlists you've already been building
DJ and MC coverage for the agreed hours, including announcements and timeline cues
Professional sound, lighting, and staging as the event requires — from my own inventory of PA mains and subs, a mic package, a digital or analog mixer, stage decks up to 20' × 8', lighting packages, and house music
Coordination with your venue and other vendors before the day, so power, placement, and load-in are settled in advance
Ceremony or cocktail-hour coverage, or live musicians for dinner, through Chrissos Music (see Weddings and Artist Agency)
A fuller production plot when the room needs more than a standard DJ setup (see Event Production)
The quote will state exactly what is on your date. If a trusted colleague would be the better DJ, MC, or production lead, I'll recommend them rather than force a fit.
Investment: Quotes are prepared after we know the date, venue, hours, and production needs. Pricing is quote-only; I don't publish package starting prices.
1. Inquire. Send the date, venue, event type, approximate guest count, and the hours you'd like covered. A short inquiry form is the cleanest path (see CTA note below). You can also email demetri@chrissosmusic.com or call/text 301-775-6407.
2. We talk. We'll walk through the vibe, the timeline, and whether I'm the right fit — or whether someone from my network would serve you better. If you're new to Savannah, this conversation is also a practical guide to the local scene.
3. You receive a quote. If it's a match, I'll send a written proposal covering hours, equipment, investment, and next steps.
4. The date is held with a contract and deposit. Deposit timing and cancellation terms are spelled out in the proposal.
5. We plan the music. Closer to the event, we finalize songs, announcements, and day-of logistics so you can be a guest at your own celebration.
Weddings are a natural fit, but I also DJ and MC corporate, private, and public events. Tell me what you're planning and we'll see if the date and the room are a match.
You should have a clear say. I'll ask for must-plays, do-not-plays, and any playlists you've already started. I use that as a foundation, then read the room so the night doesn't stall — or get pushed somewhere you didn't want to go.
Yes. I provide professional sound, lighting, and staging as the booking requires, including PA mains and subs, a mic package, a digital or analog mixer, stage decks up to 20' × 8', lighting packages, and house music. The quote will specify the plot for your room. If the event needs more than I should take on myself, I'll recommend a trusted production partner from my network.
If I'm not available, or if someone else would serve you better, I can recommend a trusted DJ, musician, or production expert from my network and, if you want, coordinate the booking so you still have one point of contact.
As early as you can, especially for spring and fall Saturdays. If your date is close, still inquire — sometimes a weeknight, a shorter set, or a trusted colleague is the right answer.
I'm based in Savannah. I take events anywhere within about 100 miles along the Lowcountry coast, and in college towns such as Statesboro and Athens. Travel is accounted for in the quote.
Share a few details about the event. I'll follow up with availability and, if it's a fit, a clear next step.
