Roger Sanchez

Roger Sanchez will always hold a place in Miami's heart for making the first two editions of the Dancestar Awards tolerable with his quick and hilarious punchlines. But he's also a pretty good DJ, having just won an award for DJ of the Year at the inaugural House Music Awards...

Roger Sanchez will always hold a place in Miami's heart for making the first two editions of the Dancestar Awards tolerable with his quick and hilarious punchlines. But he's also a pretty good DJ, having just won an award for DJ of the Year at the inaugural House Music Awards in London last month. And did you know that he won a Grammy Award this year for remixing No Doubt's massive hit "Hella Good?" Now, dance fanatics across South Florida will have a chance to exult in the gloriousness of this Stealth label owner, DJ/producer/maestro, and house music star.
