So. Cal. callers and DJs for your party, community, barn dance, square dance, or whatever the occasion!
Anybody can stream some music from their phone into a little speaker. Any DJ will be happy to setup a good sound system and play same rocking music, as your guests sit and talk.
We’re different. ๐ค
We’ll setup the sound. We’ll play the music. The difference when you hire callers is: We get people dancing! ๐๐บ
Want to line dance? We’ll show you the moves. A bit of contra? We’ve got you covered. Want to learn America’s official folk dance? We’ll teach your group to square dance in as little as half an hour!
We’re a husband & wife duo, doing what we love! ๐

Diana’s first passion has always been in music. She’s been learning, playing, and collecting since her teen years, when she also frequented dance clubs and took up square dancing with her family.
After some years off to raise her own family, she returned to the world of squares in 2012 and a few years later, started to call square dancing. As a life-long teacher, Diana has a particular love of introducing children to dance. As a music aficionado with over ten thousand songs in her collection, becoming a DJ as well was a natural move.
Adam discovered his latent dance skills in the early 2000’s. Combined with his passion for sharing knowledge, he immediately took to assisting in square dance classes as an “angel” dancer. That has since led to learning to lead the class and dance as a square dance caller.
While his first love is the social atmosphere of a square, don’t be surprised if he jumps in to show you the way in lines, contra, ballroom, or free styling!
Adam is making his mark in the world of square dancing as the author of the Square Auto-Choreographer app, and is now able to share innovative ways of calling and teaching.
Adam and Diana met in 2012 in square dance class; Adam as an “angel” helper and Diana returning to the activity. In 2014, they married to become the dynamic duo you see today. With Diana’s deep music insights and Adam’s technical dance attunement, this complementary pair can fulfill your every dance need.
You see barn dance and think country western, don’t you? We can play country, along with pop, rock, new wave, standards, classical, childrens songs, Christmas tunes, blues, and alternative from across the past eighty years of recorded music. With over 10,000 legally purchased songs in our growing collection, we’ll work with you to put together the right mix for your event.
We love requests!
Want more than just a party night? We can work with your club, church, school, or association to offer an ongoing square dance program.
Because of our passion for the activity, we offer very low rates for these ongoing classes. (Traditional dress not required.)
Don’t want to learn new dances? No problem, we’re happy to stick to the background and keep the beats coming.
All of our music and behavior is appropriate for all ages.
We don’t just stand around and play music. We can show you how it’s done! We can teach your guests a variety of barn dances from big circles, contra, line, square, line, mixers, and quadrilles!
Square dancing is a great team-building exercise. It’s a cooperative activity that enhances people skills.
Give us an hour, and your team will be dancing in harmony!
Did you know that the event organizer is responsible for licensing to play copyright music? Yikes! Not to worry, we have you covered with BMI and ASCAP licenses for public performances. We are also insured.
We believe in enjoying life in a sustainable way. When possible, we’ll arrive in an EV charged up with solar energy. For all events, we buy carbon credits to offset our transportation and energy use.
Based in Silverado California, we are available to Orange and L.A. counties, and most of Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego counties.
