DJ Rio Entertainment

My total professionalism is what has kept me in business all these years. I believe in giving a client exactly what they want, but on a level of service that leaves them overwhelmed.

This is me in a nutshell, my name is Mario A. Rodriguez Jr, I was born in the small town of Uvalde a long time ago.  At an early age I gravitated towards music. I took piano and guitar lessons as a child and was always recording music from the radio during my teens and creating mixtapes.

During my high school days I worked on my music knowledge and skills.  I played my first actual Dj gig in 1987 for my high school "Hearts and Flowers Dance." At that point I realized how powerful music was.  I graduated and went on to join the U.S. Marine Corps and see the world. In my travels, I got to experience different cultures and different people, and that molded me into the person I am today.

After leaving the service, I returned home and worked at a Country/Western venue for several years. I got to see many different Country music acts perform. After a few years I decided to move to San Antonio and started working at a multi-genre venue.  I was the Manager/Resident DJ/Audio Engineer/Lighting Engineer.  During the almost 10 years there, I increased my knowledge of sound placement, lighting arrangement and of course my DJ skills.

After leaving the club scene, I decided to start up my Mobile Dj business and take the show on the road. I had a great business in San Antonio until October 2014. After having to have my Right Below Knee Amputation it sidelined me for almost a year.

In June 2015, I made my return to the business. I dj'ed for my nieces Sweet 16 in Uvalde. After that I moved to Bryan, Tx to be closer to family and start my new chapter in life.  Today I continue to provide my services to the South and Central areas of Texas. I'm willing to travel for all my clients.  I love what I do, and if you love what you do, you can't call it a job. To me it's having fun.
