DJ John Simmons

John Simmons is a veteran DJ from Chicago with almost thirty years of experience on the decks. Growing up with a foundation in soul, jazz, funk, and golden era hip-hop, John caught on to House music in the early ‘90s & soon found himself immersed in Chicago’s underground/rave scene. While maintaining a countless number of residencies at Chicago venues over the years, John has played alongside many of the industry’s greats, including Frankie Knuckles, Steve "Silk" Hurley, Mike Dunn, Cajmere/Green Velvet, Derrick Carter, Paul Johnson, Juan Atkins, & Kaytranada, to name a few. His stint as resident DJ at the legendary Smartbar nightclub in Chicago was a career highlight that saw him sharing the stage with some of these worldwide greats on a regular basis. John has traveled well, performing often outside of Chicago in cities such as New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Detroit, San Francisco, Seattle, Montreal, Mexico City, Berlin, & Cairo, Egypt to name a few.
