DJ Eric AKA the Wedding Ginga Looking for that something a little different for your wedding or corporate function. Wanting to have some live background music for canapes but to kick off the shoes and dance later in the night. Usually you would have to pay through the teeth for this type of scenario but not with Eric the Entertainer.
 
Eric the Entertainer provides the perfect option. Not only will you get a professional DJ with over 15 years experience in Christchurch and Canterbury but you also get an acoustic soloist who has been on the Christchurch music scene since he was in High School. Eric has performed with the likes of Jason Kerrison from Op Shop and Nathan King formally of Zed and has appeared on TV shows such as What Now and Telethon.

Eric originally trained at the New Zealand broadcasting school so brings the professional edge of live radio to his Gigs. He has amazing music knowledge and uses this to read the crowd and play the right music at the right time to ensure everyone has a great time.

He can also step in and provide MC services if required, and has hosted Bingo and Quiz nights as well as many other large events.

With a great sounding PA system and Professional Lighting you will feel like you are in the club.

Here’s what some of Eric’s previous clients had to say.

Thanks we had an amazing day everything went so smoothly. Thanks for doing our wedding with short notice, you were great loved every minute of it and everyone enjoyed themselves. Would definately reccommend you to others in the future.

Thank you so much Eric for being the DJ at our Wedding! You were so fantastic to work with. You made us feel completely at ease with how organized you were and this let us relax and enjoy the day. We were so glad that we chose you as our DJ for our special day and we would totally recommend you to others!! Thanks again! Karen.

Hi Eric, Thank-you so much for being the DJ at our wedding. Our guests loved the music and had such a great time. Your selection of music really fitted the crowd, getting even my dad on the dance floor. I’ve never seen him dance, so that’s a real accomplishment. Sorry I didn’t get a chance to thank-you on the night, we really appreciated the music which really made the night. Thanks again Craig and Kelly Baker

Hired Eric for the first time last night at our Xmas function – excellent. Adjusted music to suit the crowd – in the end other people not with our party asked to join in because they liked the music he played so much. Definitely hire him again! John McKenzie – Archibalds

 
We recently used DJ Eric for our wedding and found him excellent. He was friendly and polite and went out of his way to accommodate us, I do not hesitate in recommending him to all.

About DJ Kere

I started my career working for Christchurch Discos under my mentor DJ Joe. I started off working with him at The Bush Bar. I stayed with Christchurch Discos for a couple of years working at various bars.

From there I worked for Canterbury Entertainment for about 3 years. Our main events were private functions, Weddings, Birthdays etc. While I was with them, I became their number 1 DJ, thanks to Paul and Sam my private functions expertise grew.

With my main job commitments growing, I retired for a short time but still did the odd request job for Canterbury Entertainment. When I changed my job I went back into Mobile DJing. I  soon started working for Night Shift Discos, subcontracted by Playtime Promotions, working in bars, private functions and schools throughout Canterbury, where I have been working for the past 8 years.

I am very excited to be taking what I have learnt over the past 15 years and starting my own DJ Business.

Music

The right music for the right party can do wonders for a great night out.  I carry what is known as a “basic music list”.  All the greats from Abba to Black Eye Peas, Andy Kim to Pearl Jam in fact you’d be surprised at what I have.

From keeping your old folks to the young ones happy, isn’t an easy task especially when music is involved. So when choosing music to play on the night I use a rotation system to keep everyone happy. It’s a proven system that works. playing songs that everyone knows and can either sing along or dance to, then to mix up throw in the rare song so others in your party can enjoy as well.  This way everyone gets what they want.

More importantly I play within the rules of the night from the bookings. What that means is if you want a certain type of music to be played or don’t want to be played I will respect that.

If you have a song(s) or artist(s) in mind that you want to hear then let us know and I’ll do the best I can to make sure your requests are met.
