Here Comes the Vibe is the event DJ and music service of Jerred Roggensack .
Hey y'all I'm Jerred. Thanks for stopping by.
Here Comes the Vibe is a project that you could say has been brewing for decades.
I grew up with a piano teacher mom and an all-state saxophone playing dad who helped instill in me a deep love of music. I started playing guitar and writing terrible songs when I was 13. At 16 I started playing and singing in my church's band. As a part of that, I gained a lot of experience setting up sound and lighting systems and performing while putting on a weekly service.
Then during my time at Northwestern University my love and experience of music exploded. Through attending house parties, dozens of concerts in Chicago, and sorority formals; music and dancing were everywhere. And I became known as the guy having the most fun on the dance floor. This culminated in a couple of friends and I emceeing the NU Dance Marathon where we kept 900 dancers motivated and moving for 30 straight hours. Another music highlight for me was releasing a self produced and recorded hip hop album at the end of college.
Over the past 8 years I've lived in Japan, spent a month in Kenya, trekked Macchu Picchu, and traveled throughout the U.S. As a result, I've experienced dance floors and parties around the world. From hipster Japanese funk bars to Quinceañeras to Ghanean pop music, I have seen the power and joy of music (and how the Beatles, Michael Jackson, and Beyonce transcend all boundaries and cultures).
In the midst of all of this, I began DJing for some friends and family weddings. And discovered I was good at it by seeing how great a time everybody was having. So in 2017 I officially founded Here Comes the Vibe and started rocking weddings around the Chicago area. So now I'm ready to bring my energy and skills to your party.
Let's vibe.
