Our Party News

I grew up in Burbank California, in a home where music of all genres was always appreciated. At age 13, I started taking music lessons learning to play multiple instruments. My love for music grew in many directions as I studied Classical, Jazz, Big Band and Swing music creating a bigger appreciation for multiple genres of music. I found beauty and cause for each and all in between.

Starting with this appreciation for the art of music at an early age, I began DJ'ing in '96 while attending high school. And taking what I learned from more advanced collegues, I attended the Institute of Arts and Multimedia in Los Angeles, California. Graduating in 2004 with degrees in the field, with varying levels of difficulty and range of knowledge.

To Whom It May Concern:

I am a musician, producer and business owner who has worked in the Los Angeles entertainment industry for nearly 20 years. I have known and worked with Jose Amaral consistently over the last two years, both in the Cicada club in downtown L.A., and at Memories in Whittier. From our very first conversation, I found Jose to be engaging, affable and easygoing. He has that rare ability to remain comfortable in any situation or interaction, putting those around him at ease as well.

Jose’s demeanor, however, should not give one the impression that he does not “take care of business.” As a sound engineer, booking agent and promoter he consistently demonstrated a high level of responsibility, conscientiousness and attention to detail. In a business often known for a lack of professionalism, Jose is that rare gem - consistently responsible and reliable at all times.

I heartily recommend Jose in every way as a potential employee.

Sincerely,

Jose Amaral ran my weekly event, the Tuesday Night Dance At Joe’s at Joe’s Bar & Grill for approximately 6 weeks while I was away on tour last summer, and has also filled in for me on several other occasions.

Duties included hosting and MC-ing the night, DJ-ing, setting up the stage and DJ area, running the sound for the bands, paying the bands, and being the go-to guy for just about anything that might come up. He is professional, responsible, and reliable in his duties and an excellent DJ as well. I would not hesitate to use him again or to recommend him to others.

To whom it may concern:

It is with great pleasure that I recommend Jose Amaral’s services to you. I have known him for over four years.
Jose has always displayed a high degree of integrity, responsibility, and professionalism. His ability to organize, promote, and run events is second to none. I run an annual lindyhop exchange in Las Vegas every year and Jose is my point man for all of southern California.  When he says he will get a job done, he does, and he does it well. His ability to DJ a variety of music and keep a crowd happy is one of his many strengths.

Jose would be an asset to any organization or event, and I am happy to give him my wholehearted endorsement.

Sincerely,
Mark Brunton, CPhT
