Who Broc is
Who is Broc Barton, and what does Artist tier mean at Elevate Entertainment?
Broc Barton is the founder, CEO and owner of Elevate Entertainment and an Artist-tier Elevate-Certified™ DJ and MC. Artist is the top of Elevate’s four tiers.
The Artist tier Artist sits above Premium, Elite and Exclusive. Our headliners: industry veterans with 10+ years and 1,500+ events behind them. Advanced MCs who read and steer the room, with signature mixes and relentless energy. Booked when the entertainment is the event. You choose your DJ, and we hold your pick for your night.
Broc grew up in Thayer, Missouri. He describes himself in three words: hype, personable and innovative.
Two lines belong to the company Broc Barton built rather than to him alone: 417 Magazine named Elevate “The Face of Event Entertainment”, and Elevate is the official DJ partner of Missouri State Bears Athletics.
“I want to help people feel this alive.”
Broc, in his interview

★★★★★“Our friends and family are still talking about it. Broc's leadership made everyone around him better, and it showed all night. …”
★★★★★“We had the absolute pleasure of having Broc from Elevate Entertainment as our wedding DJ, and we cannot recommend this company enough! From start to finish. We trusted Broc with the most important day of our lives, and he exceeded every expectation. His charismatic, fun, and high-energy presence kept the dance floor alive, kept all our guests engaged, and brought so much joy to our wedding!! What made this an exceptional experience was that Broc took the time to understand what mattered most to us and tailored every moment to reflect our vision, making the entire experience feel so personal and special. He was well worth the cost! Your dj is a very important choice and if you want your day to feel seamless and flawless! Broc is the one to choose!”
★★★★★“Broc kept the high energy from the minute the first song played, all the way to our sendoff song. If you want a high energy wedding that people will remember forever. DJ Broc with Elevate Entertainment is your guy, no questions asked! The professionalism for the music as well as announcements were exactly what we always dreamed of. Broc read the crowd perfectly, mixing the perfect blend of popular songs with hits that kept everyone young and old out of their seats. …”
★★★★★“We had an absolutely amazing time with our DJ BROC at our wedding! From start to finish, he kept the energy high and the crowd engaged with fun games that got everyone involved. …”
★★★★★“Broc deserves a award for being the saving grace at our wedding! He kept the party going”
★★★★★“Elevate Entertainment is the best of the very best. We met with Broc months before the wedding when we originally decided to have an elite DJ. After just a few touch points with him, we knew we needed him as part of our celebration. He made us feel more in love and excited about our wedding every time we spoke. Broc is an absolute dynamo with acute attention to detail and a golden heart. He was always two steps ahead of our wedding coordinator, making sure we were hydrated and without a need in the world. He even built my dinner plate!! He facilitated core memories we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We cannot recommend him or the Elevate fam enough!”
★★★★★“After attending a friend’s wedding DJ’d by Broc with Elevate Entertainment, my now husband kept Broc’s business card in his wallet for almost 3 years until we finally got to have Broc DJ our own wedding! He met or exceeded every expectation we had and was so easy to work with. Our venue even included an in house DJ but Broc was one of our best spent budget items. Everything went smoothly on our big day (in big part thanks to Broc) and he did a great job getting everyone involved at our reception.”
★★★★★“We could go on and on about how great it was to work with elevate! We had broc as our dj and he made the night! His energy kept the night going and people on the floor. So thankful for our sit down meeting to go over and plan the day out, he helped give advice on timelines, songs, and activites to help put forward the best arrangment of the evening. I felt so comfortable come wedding day because I knew with his help I had a solid schedule built and planned.”
★★★★★“Broc was amazing!! We had a smaller wedding but what we all needed was an epic night out with music from our elder-millennial days. Broc brought so much fun and energy to the ceremony and reception that not a single person had a bad time. Everyone was so excited to be there and had the most fun!! If you're debating on spending the bucks for a "DJ", Broc and his team are way more than that. I had zero worries for my day and got to enjoy every minute of it because of Broc and his team. Spend the money, hire Elevate, do it!!”
★★★★★“Broc was our wedding DJ, and WOW! He did an amazing job! Broc took care of us and our needs all evening, as well as hosted our wedding. He did interactive games throughout dinner to keep the energy flowing. He got us drinks, and carried my plate for me through the buffet line. He read the crowd so well with his music choices and encouraged every guest to have the best time they could. Broc did an excellent job with providing guests important information, and helped make the entire event run seamlessly. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Broc and Elevate Entertainment as a whole. If you are looking for a DJ for any event, not just weddings, Elevate Entertainment is absolutely your best option!!”
★★★★★“Elevate Entertainment is a step above the rest. Broc and his team made our wedding reception a true celebration. Broc asked us how much energy we wanted at our event and he brought it. Not only does he do his job as a DJ, but he also continued to check in with us throughout the night and ensure he was doing everything he could to make sure we were having the BEST time of our lives. Cannot recommend them enough!!”
