In February 2013, the dream became a reality, and DJ Guerito was born………

Guerito put together a demo CD produced from an app on his iPhone and submitted it to an established DJ, whom invited him to make his debut at Blush & Blue After hours. Flattered and full of motivation, DJ Guerito made the life changing decision to quit his “day job” and put 100% into building a career as a DJ.

He also graciously accepted the offer to be the featured DJ for all 3 days of Pride Fest Denver 2013 at Broadways, which evolved into one of the weekly residencies aforementioned. His second residency, he took a risk with an unestablished nightclub just outside the Metro area, Lipstick Discotheque was a short lived experience, due to lack of attendance, the status of the establishment is currently undetermined. His first residency, a monthly appearance at Leela European Cafe, he promises to hold as long as he resides in Denver. Being the first gig he acquired it holds a certain sentimental value.
