NICHE: I've played ALL sorts of music at weddings but every once in a while I get some fellow former 00's indie kids who want some LCD Soundsystem, MGMT, or Passion Pit. I enjoy mixing that genre with classic wedding tunes 🎵 FUN FACT: I play keys in my own band Karma Fête 🎹 When I'm not DJing a wedding on Saturdays, catch me at the Green Mill running sound for the Paper Machete comedy/music variety show!

Zach is a lifelong musician, tech savvy audiofile, and Green Line OG, boasting the most Five-Star Reviews in the Chicago Branch's history! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ He is a classically trained pianist who began writing and performing music in his teenage years. While obtaining his BA in Music Technology at Transylvania University, Zach was frequently invited to join the stage with a number of local bands, eventually landing a spot DJing for a local hip hop act. What began as a fun way to open and close shows, eventually evolved into a passion and a profession.
Zach is well regarded for his ability to select both lesser-known tracks and modern hits that are guaranteed to get people moving. With a wide range of tastes and musical experience, he is able to put together a playlist for any occasion. Currently Zach spends his days engineering sessions for a variety of musicians in his production studio, writing and mixing his own music, and gigging with a few different local acts. When he’s not in the studio, you might find him riding down Lake Front Trail or catching a jazz concert at the Green Mill tavern near his apartment. 🎹 Ask about Zach's Live Piano Add-On for your Ceremony or Cocktail Hour! 🎹 /
To start, Green Line was amazing to work with for our wedding! When it came to our initial meeting and consultation, they were very transparent about pricing. When discussing what we wanted, they promptly put a contract together. We then had multiple changes that needed to be made as planning evolved. They were very flexible with updates to the contract, to the point that we received a small reimbursement when we realized that the full time that we paid for was not needed based on the schedule! We wound up using Zach as our DJ from them and he was fantastic! He was easy to work with and curated a great sequence of songs based on what we wanted during every step of the day. He was great at taking our general ideas and developing a playlist that multiple people talked with us about. People were on the dance floor the whole night, having a blast and enjoying the music! We cannot recommend both Zach and Green Line to anyone more for their wedding!
