About Dave Heinrich
Dave grew up in Reno, Nevada, and fell in love with DIY punk and hardcore shows in the 1990s. He moved to Colorado in the late 1990s to attend the University of Colorado, Boulder (civil engineering), and was a founding member of the hardcore bands Shogun and Omega Point. Dave began DJing on turntables in the late 1990s, maintained a long-running residency at The Barrel House, and still uses those original turntables after refurbishment. Prior to focusing on Tier Two Live, he worked as a professionally registered civil engineer and owned a consulting firm, Akamai Design. Dave and his wife completed the 2,650-mile Pacific Crest Trail in 2006. He is a co-founder of the Lafayette Music Fest (est. 2022).

Testimonials
"Dave was amazing! Provided perfect vibes for our holiday party, got people dancing for sure! But the music was enjoyable and just to sit and chat/socialize to. Very professional, was there early to set up so everything was ready on time for the party to start and actively guided the party along with a nice wrap up at the end. Would highly recommend for any event, we had an 80s theme."
"I would recommend Dave to absolutely anyone looking for not just a fun, life-of-the-party DJ and MC, but also someone reliable, heartfelt, and truly dedicated to making your day the best it can be."
"Dave DJed our wedding and was absolutely amazing. Very professional and made sure all details were correct. We got so many compliments on the music and he had a whole dance floor all night."
"Dave was awesome to work with! From our first meeting he was very professional and prepared with questions to help things run smoothly. When it got closer to our date, he finalized things with me and even reached out to our venue and videographer and worked well to coordinate with them. We had a small wedding so I was a little worried people wouldn't dance but there was people out there all night and everyone had a blast!"
"The best DJ we have ever had! Professional, played the most amazing playlist, and all around the best experience!!"
