About

Hoosier Live is a wedding DJ and live music company operating out of Columbus, Indiana. Owner Jacob Kennedy got into the business after performing at a family member’s wedding and hearing how much their DJ charged. As someone who got married young, Jacob understood what it was like to be on a budget and the importance of affordable yet high-quality services. He decided to start his own company in order to offer other couples impeccable DJ performances paired with reasonable prices. This professional cares deeply about fitting into your celebration and will work hard to bring you the soundtrack you desire.

Failed to provide DJ services

I would NOT recommend Hoosier Live for any DJ services. Jacob was unreliable and failed to perform DJ services at my wedding, breaking the terms of our contract.


I booked Hoosier Live for my wedding. Jacob required a 50% ($500) deposit at the time of booking to hold the date. He seemed like a great fit at first, but his response rate and communication worsened as we got closer to the wedding. A few months before the wedding, I reached out to finalize details and was unable to get in touch. His email bounced back and both phone numbers I had for him were disconnected. After multiple attempts to contact him through Instagram Messenger, where I had had success contacting him previously, and via snail mail, he still did not respond. He ended up ghosting me and not fulfilling his contract to provide DJ services. I have been trying to get our initial $500 deposit back for months and still cannot get a response. We ended up having to hire a different DJ.
