Nick Ryder - Owner and DJ

I started Astuary Sound simply because I love music. I wanted to give people an experience that makes everything sound the way it should—big, clear, and fun—without any of the hassle. I’ve been working in sound for over 17 years, from being the DJ at your local dive bar, to a wedding at the top of the Tribune tower in Chicago, I treat every event with same passion, to bring great sound and good vibes to every event.
