Mike has been with Brooks Music the longest of anyone else in the team! Brandon and Mike met at a wedding in 2008 and connected right away. Anyone who knows Mike will say he is the most easy going person ever. Mike knows just how to put you at ease with his chill vibe. But don't let that fool you into thinking he won't be professional. Mikes smooth voice commands on the microphone. Extremely punctual and ALWAYS prepared. He's always down to grab a drink and talk about your wedding. Just read some of the reviews and see what Mikes past couples have to say.

Xavier Breiding
DJ/MC
Xavier has been with Brooks Music pretty much from the beginning. He started while he was going to school at the University of Akron. Unfortunately he moved a couple hours away after he started his Masters Degree. While he lives far away from the home base, Xavier can sometimes be found entertaining at events closer to him. Occasionally he will return for an event. Since getting married and starting a family, Xavier takes on very few events, but he is still and will always be a part of the team!

Earl McDonald III
DJ/MC
Earl McDonald III, or DJ Mac as he is known, is truly one of Akron's finest local products. He is our most requested DJ! Born and raised in the city this guy has an outstanding personality teamed with an amazingly infectious smile. He is extremely well rounded which makes him a jack-of-all-trades and perfect for any occasion. On the music front he can do it all. As a person who enjoys good music, he has been DJing and emceeing with Brooks Music since 2010 focusing primarily on Weddings, private parties and other small gatherings. Not one to get too fancy with mixing and splicing of tracks he always knows the perfect song for every instance. Earl has stepped back from Djing in the wake of the recent pandemic. While he is still considered part of the team, he takes very few events.
