Celebrating 17 Years of Out of Focus Entertainment
As we step into 2025, we proudly celebrate a significant milestone—17 years of Out of Focus Entertainment!
Founded in 2008, Out of Focus Entertainment began as a simple idea—almost by accident. Like many businesses, we started with limited equipment, minimal experience, and barely a budget. Yet, thanks to the guidance and bold visions of incredible mentors, the unwavering support of our family and friends, and those early clients who took a chance on us, we have grown into the company we are today and one of the most popular and sought after DJ & Karaoke entertainment companies in the Chicagoland and NW Indiana area!
Over the past 17 years, we’ve had the privilege of providing entertainment for thousands of events—ranging from bar and club gigs to weddings, festivals, corporate functions, public and private events. Along the way, we’ve met remarkable people, partnered with amazing clients, and collaborated with some outstanding talent. Through constant reinvestment in our company, continuous learning, and a commitment to mastering our craft, we have grown, expanded, and evolved immensely, however, we’ve never lost sight of our beginnings—one weekly gig at a small bar in Orland Park, where we actually had to borrow sound equipment and earned a whole $80 for the night.
As with any business, the journey has had it's ups and downs. It’s been through these challenges—whether financial setbacks, tough competition, moments of frustration, or just the not great people you sometimes encounter in such a cut throat industry—that we’ve learned the most. There were times when it seemed easier to walk away, but we persisted and stayed true to our foundation of honesty, professionalism, and delivering quality entertainment at a fair price, which has allowed us to thrive, reach this incredible milestone, earn multiple awards for, and is what sets us apart from the rest.
We owe our success over the past 17 years to our loyal clients, past and present, our partners in the industry, the talented individuals we’ve had the pleasure of working with, and each of you who has supported us in some way.
As part of this celebration, we’re excited to announce the retirement of our original, 17 year old logo, and unveil our fresh, new, carefully crafted and designed logo! As our business has evolved, our look has also evolved, but our commitment to providing exceptional entertainment and upholding our founding principles remains the same.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Here’s to a safe, healthy and rocking 2025 for all!
