BIO

Ben Vera (DJ BenThere) has quickly established himself as one of Hollywood's most versatile and creative DJs in the club scene. With schooling in music production from UCLA, he began his DJ career at underground hip-hop clubs playing funk and rare grooves in side rooms and patios. After playing small clubs and several private parties over the years, he has worked his way up to playing at Hollywood's biggest and most exclusive venues.

An expert at taking a party from cocktail hour to end of the night euphoria, he is notorious for making people want to stay when it's closing time. His flawless mixes of everything from classic rock to salsa to hip-hop to house and everything in between is cleverly crafted on the spot, making each of his performances impressive and moving. Not just a DJ who stands behind the turntables, he enjoys interacting with his audience. A very entertaining person onstage in many aspects, the bigger the crowd, the better to him. With a knack for playing the right song at just the right moment, he sets up his audience for loud cheering and sweaty dancing all night long. If there was one word to describe him, it would have to be "FUN". Fun is the emotion that everyone has when he is in the mix!

When you witness his talents in person, it becomes no mystery why he has been chosen to DJ for multiple celebrities (Magic Johnson, Nelly, Wyclef Jean, Bow Wow, Fat Joe, 112), radio (100.3fm The Beat L.A.), large corporations (General Motors, Home Depot, Devry University, Playboy TV, Best Buy, Pepsi Cola, Warehouse Shoe Sales, Nascar, Dub Magazine), arenas (L.A. Coliseum L.A. Sports Arena, Staples Center, Indio Polo Grounds) and overseas (Germany, China, and Portugal)! Described by many as "the best they have ever heard", he humbly strives to keep the crowd's enjoyment at the forefront of each performance.

Since making his first mixes on a double cassette deck as a kid to now performing in front of crowds of thousands in person and millions on radio waves using the newest digital technology - it is evident that he is not new and not going anywhere soon!
