"I've been in the event biz in Philly for a good long while and I have come across very few that are as eternally upbeat and professional as Taz Sellers" - Chris Hensel (Hensel Photography)

That's Ashley and Zac above at the Manorhouse at Commonwealth and following the event they had this to say "From first to the last song, DJ Taz was perfect! My husband and I submitted a lot of requests and weren't sure how everything was going to work out but Taz was on top of everything! He was extremely professional but also knew how to keep the party going! We wanted a fun dance party and that was exactly what Taz delivered! Thank you for making our wedding night perfectly awesome!!"

The Clients above had this to say: " DJ Taz was AMAZING!! We had 230 guests and he kept the dance floor packed all night! Our guests are STILL talking about how great he was and how all his songs throughout the night were perfect and on-point. I had 2 special requests for him that he fulfilled perfectly. One was that my dad wanted to do our father-daughter dance to an intense EDM song that hes obsessed with and not many people even know about . I told my dad that for our dance we were going to dance to a different song that my mom requested, and then I asked DJ Taz if he could somehow mix in the EDM song after dinner/cake-cutting and call dad and I out to the dance floor to get the party started. I spoke to Taz about this over the phone and he listened to the song on the spot and told me he could make it work.... which he did PERFECTLY!! Dad was the happiest person there, Mom was happy, guests were loving it, dance floor was packed! My second request was to introduce our surprise guest, the PSU Nittany Lion. He reached out to the Lion on his own to discuss everything beforehand. He then pumped up the crowd to the point where EVERYONE was on their feet and then played the perfect intro song along with 2 other Penn State songs. It was awesome and another part of the day that our guests are STILL talking about! Thank you DJ Taz for make our special day absolutely amazing!!!! I HIGHLY recommend booking DJ Taz ASAP (he usually gets booked early), you wont have to worry about anything! He has over 20 years of experience, is always up to date with the latest, and knows how to work a crowd!!"

Taz Sellers is a Five Star Silver Sound DJ.

My Full Bio:
I have had a lifelong love affair with music! As an accomplished audio engineer and musician I hold degrees in Audio Engineering, Music and Music Business from both Full Sail University and Berklee College of Music. My DJ Career started while still in high school spinning at the historic Main Line landmark, Radnor Rolls Roller Rink along with being one of the original skateguards. I continued on DJing at nightclubs in Florida, Philly and Boston while earning my degrees, when not in the recording studios working with many Grammy winning artists or on the road touring as a sound engineer for The Spin Doctors, Third World, Chubby Checker and more.

In 1997, I met Silver Sound founder Paul Evans and joined the team as a DJ and served for 9 years as General Manager, helping to grow the company. In 2008, I took a 4 year sabbatical from the company as a manager to work for Apple. But returned to the company I had help build to continue my passion of helping clients create the perfect event as one of Silver Sound's top DJs and Vice President of the company . I am a proud member of NACE (National Association of Catering and Events) where I continue to enhance my event skills on a professional level and was recently awarded member of the month by peers. I also run my own production studio specializing in music production, voice overs, custom mixes for wedding clients and new artist development for my independent record label bearing the same name as the studio Emphatic Inc.
