Full Bio

Whether rocking classics, spinning the latest hits, or mashing two genres seamlessly, MisteR DeeJay knows what it takes to move a crowd.

Impeccable track selection, smooth mixes, and crowd management are the essential ingredients that make any MisteR DeeJay event a truly memorable & unique experience.

Born in Lansing Michigan, Brevin "MisteR DeeJay" Cawthorne began his love affair with music at a young age. While attending Michigan State University, Brevin parlayed his passion into a career when he began rocking house parties, bars, clubs and receptions in and around the capitol city while pursuing a bachelors degree in communications.

A life long seasonal resident of Mackinac Island, Brevin swiftly established residencies at all the Islands hot spots and reception venues, where he continues to perform weekly, May - October.

In 2005, Brevin founded Island Entertainment, Mackinac Wedding specialists located on the Island, and, in five short years, became the go to entertainment provider on Mackinac, known for the understanding of the complex logistics of Island weddings and quality performances.

Over the years, Brevin's career and talents have blossomed, affording him the opportunity to perform in some of the most unique venues and events in the state.

When the city of Detroit Michigan was chosen to play host to Superbowl XL, it was Brevin who was tapped to broadcast live from the banks of the Detroit River.

In July 2008, Brevin was privileged to be chosen as the official entertainer of the 100th Annual Chicago to Mackinac Awards Ceremony.

Though Michigan remains his home base, Brevin's talents have taken him to venues in Costa Rica, Cabo San Lucas Mexico, and Canada.

Through hard work and determination, this well rounded artist has amassed a resume that any deejay would be envious of. Quick hands, a skilled musical ear and ability to play to diverse audiences have served as the foundation of past accomplishments, while unrelenting focus and dedication to his trade assure Brevin continued success in the future.
