DJ VAL® Chicago’s Longest Running Female DJ!

This warm, incredible and kind DJ has sustained and flourished
in the music industry with all of her life’s battles. She started spinning records in 1973 for friends at an after-
school latchkey kids program. From there, Val went on to spin at some of the trendiest clubs in Chicago and
around the World. Through her successful DJ career, as she continuously lifted her crowds week in and week
out, she battled and beat graves disease, bladder cancer and thyroid cancer. This is the true meaning of a
superstar DJ.

DJ VAL has been recognized an honored by the Architects of House as one of the 100 most influential DJ’s in the
Chicago House Music scene between 1975 and 1995. Val plays a wide variety of genres to include EDM, house
and whatever it takes to move a crowd. She is most likely the only DJ in the world to have held three
consecutive 16 plus years Club residencies. Cadillac Jacks 16 years, Marianna’s 17 years & Studio 31 17 years.
Along with her successful DJ career she has owned her own Internet Radio Station.

Having a DJ career with such great longevity would only be followed with a producing and remixing career to
mirror such success! DJ VAL’s very first remix, The Freedom Mix for Teri Bristol’s Tom-E’s Theme, sung by
Georgie Porgie went #1 on the Kings Of Spins Worldwide chart, it entered the top ten on EDM America, hit #54
on the iTunes dance sales chart. DJ Val has released her first single “Rise Again” that speaks to the testament of
her life! The single has gone #1 on Kings of Spins as well as #3 on the National Mix Show Chart for the US. The
success of the single has taken this legendary Diva from Miami to Ibiza and LA to New York and everything in
between. During her hectic touring schedule Val still carved out studio time to remix Georgie Porgie’s single
“Keep On Lovin’ You” and recorded a new single. Her remix of Georgie’s single has propelled it to the #1 position
for 2 ½ months on the charts! Val’s single “Bouncy House” released mid 2015, has earned her a second #1
record and her single “TURN IT UP” has earned her a third #1 record on Kings Of Spins in 2016 with her
4th #1 record “RIDE FREE” along with Georgie Porgie in 2018!
This Superstar DJ is the real deal! Just ask her fans around the World as they continue to testify their
Love for this musical vessel!

Her motto in life sums up this brilliant and courageous DJ…
”Life is short, have fun, surround yourself with positive people & do what you Love”
