Embrace diversity That’s the MO of DJ John LePage, a DJ who has taken turns flying above and below the radar for years. For those in the know, it’s a familiar name attached to a sound that’s as familiar as it is varied. For the uninitiated, well, let’s just say they’re about to learn the meaning of true talent.
LePage, a San Franciscan with the sensibility of his native Canada, is one of those rare DJ's who has managed to not only avoid the pinch of the recession, but rather extract those inner and outer influences of diversity to take his refined sound and cross-over appeal to the next level.
“Sure, things are tough. I mean, my day job is in real estate, so I get it. But, no community knows better how to weather a storm like the gay community. What’s more, we tend to buck trends, and what I’m finding is that guys are going out now more than they have in a long time,” said LePage. “One thing’s for sure – while drink prices and cover charges have come down, the demand for good music hasn’t, so the audiences are just as demanding as ever.”
