Below is an excerpt from DJ Matt Cassidy’s website:

“I play feel good music that elicits a feeling in me. I pride myself in the ability to transition that energy to the audience which generates a unique experience that heightens the senses.”

In a world filled of limitless media, DJ Matt Cassidy prides himself in the art of discovering new sounds/music that will keep him sounding different from the act before or after him. He has been heavily circulating the Denver music scene as an independent act for over 20 years. Staying true to his urban roots, his sets pay homage to the artists who have inspired him throughout his career. His performances dominate stages, with original productions and unique edits that leave audiences with nothing left to be desired.
