| About Dean Vaccaro |
DJ Dean Vaccaro has been a fixture on the Minneapolis nightclub scene for nearly 24 years, keeping many of the city's highest-profile dancefloors full and on the leading edge of club tastes. From his memorable start at the original Graffitti's/Schiek's in 1984, to his residency at the Pacific Club, to his treasured stint at the almost legendary Rogue as head DJ, Dean has held court at literally every major venue in Minneapolis and developed a loyal following for his diverse repetoires of deep house, '80s underground, real disco and more recently, lounge exotica (at the swank Club Velvet as his alter-ego, King Kini). Dean was honored in 1999 with a Minnesota Music Award nomination for "Best Club DJ" and was bestowed a 'star' in 2000 on First Avenue's esteemed wall of fame. In 2001, Dean co-founded the improvisational house music collective, Tambuca with fellow 'Musicos y DJs' and can currently be heard spinning in various twin cities nightspots including the renowned First Avenue, Bar Lurcat, King and I Thai, Anemoni Sushi Bar, Caterpillar Lounge and others.
