DJ Phil Kominski


"I love when the crowd is involved and enthused... the end of the night when people are all singing and making requests and asking you to play longer.  For me, when people are happy and having a good time because of music that I am performing, there is no 'last call' until the venue needs to shut down". - Phil Kominski.

​As a founding member and chief songwriter of the popular Washington DC rock band Lloyd Dobler Effect, Phil has toured the world (Japan, Singapore, Afghanistan, Africa, UAE, Guam, Qatar, Kyrgijthan, Bahrain, Diego Garcia and most of the 50 states including Hawaii).  He has opened for a wealth of famous musicians (Eminem, Goo Goo Dolls, Kansas, Better Than Ezra, Santana, Third Eye Blind, Colin Hay, Grouplove, etc).  He has recorded with legends (Gary Katz, Camille Barbone, Elliott Randal, etc).  He has performed over 3000 shows from venues as small as a pea (sandwiched between two Golden Tee machines at a Dive Bar hole in the wall) to RFK Stadium in Washington, DC (65,000 people in attendance).  He has been on two record labels.  In addition, he owns a Booking and Events Agency (Freestyle Booking & Events), he is a guitar instructor, a Swim Coach (for NCAP of USA Swimming), a solo acoustic musician, a live and studio sound engineer and a session musician.  He has written over 200 songs and released 18 CDS.

Phil is amazing and really make our wedding feel special. We had a rescheduled pandemic wedding and Phil was so accommodating and helpful throughout the whole planning process. He provided live music (guitarist and violinist) at our ceremony and even provided a tripod to help with doing a live stream of our ceremony. We also had a photo booth and it was very popular with our guests. Phil did a great job being the DJ/Emcee at our reception. He was fun and energetic and professional. We highly recommend Phil for any event you may need!
