Hailing from the Bay Area, electronic DJ and producer Jauz (born Sam Vogel) has consistently made waves in the dance music scene since his debut in 2014. His journey from a young electronic music enthusiast in the crowd of Hard Summer to playing on the main stage is a testament to his meteoric rise in the industry. Jauz burst onto the international music scene with his infectious original track, “Feel the Volume” released on Mad Decent. This release catapulted him into the spotlight, earning him recognition from industry heavyweights like Zedd, Skrillex, and Diplo. His energetic sets and genre-blurring production quickly made him a staple on major festival lineups around the world.

In 2016, Jauz embarked on his first sell-out tour, "The Friendzy Tour" followed by the "Bite America!" Tour in 2018. The latter tour was especially significant as it marked the launch of his artist label, Bite This!. During this time, he released his debut album, The Wise & The Wicked which made history by reaching the #1 spot on the dance charts within just 90 minutes of its release. The album garnered over 20 million streams in less than three weeks, solidifying Jauz's position as a dance music powerhouse.

In 2019, Jauz made headlines at Coachella by dropping his viral remix of Pete Fong's “Baby Shark,” amassing over 250 million impressions during the weekend. One of Jauz's most unforgettable moments came shortly after when he made his TV debut as a special guest DJ on The Discovery Channel's "Shark After Dark" program during Shark Week. This appearance alongside comedians Rob Riggle and Adam Devine solidified his talent as a musician and a sought-after performer. 

As his popularity continued to soar, Jauz embarked on the sold-out "Dangerous Waters Tour" in early 2020, amassing over 60,000 tickets across 40 shows in the US and Canada. He also embraced the world of online streaming, raising over $50,000 for non-profit causes during COVID-19 through Twitch streams featuring guests like Illenium, Marshmello, and Alesso.

In 2022, Jauz released the Block Party EP in conjunction with a nationwide tour, bringing awareness to shark conservation through his partnership with Beneath The Waves. A mini-documentary showcased Jauz swimming with sharks, highlighting his commitment to environmental causes. Not one to rest on his laurels, Jauz explored new musical territories with his deep house project, Off The Deep End (OTDE) performing OTDE sets at prestigious festivals like Coachella, Bonnaroo, and Suwannee Halloween. He continued to foster the house music culture, with an OTDE mixtape and nationwide tour to pair with the release. Beyond his 2022 musical endeavors, Jauz also embraced fatherhood and celebrated another year of hit releases with 69 million streams and 11.7 million global listeners.

2023 marked a significant milestone with the release of Jauz’s two-part album series, starting with the Rise of the Wise project – which focused more on his love for progressive house tracks and production style. The yin-and-yang project was rounded out with a dubstep & drum n’ bass project, Wrath of the Wicked, which brought his production back to his bass-laden roots. The two albums pay homage to his debut album, The Wise and The Wicked, while highlighting his versatility and duality not only as a producer but as a human being. In conjunction with the release of Rise of the Wise and Wrath of the Wicked, Jauz embarked on the 2023-2024 Wise/Wicked tour which allowed fans to choose their musical journey. Concertgoers could attend either the "Wise" or "Wicked" show, or opt for the ultimate experience by attending both, embracing the duality within themselves and celebrating the diverse range of sounds that Jauz has to offer. 

Throughout 2024, Jauz continued to display his vast range as a producer, from the drum and bass breaks of “Higher for Your Love” to classic, warping dubstep on “Savage” that’s equal parts forward-thinking and reminiscent of the genre’s golden age. In an especially exciting moment as a Bay Area native, Jauz teamed up with P-Lo and Zion I to deliver the Golden State Warriors’ third quarter anthem, “Don’t Lose Your Head.” The Chase Center soundtrack pays tribute to the region’s ‘00s hyphy movement before warping into an electric house anthem worthy of an NBA arena. And in tandem with global distribution company OneRPM – home to names ranging from Method Man to Elohim – Jauz relaunched his acclaimed Bite This! label through his towering future bass single “Chains” (alongside releases from rising artists like Albert Breaker and Edison Cole). 

In 2025, Jauz is prepared to return to the roots that made Apple Music dub him the “Godfather of Bass House.” He’s kicked off the new year with an invigorating new single called “Feel It” that delivers on his coronation, deftly balancing soaring melodies with a propulsive groove. On the Bite This! front he's prepared for a brand new Miami Music Week takeover, and with many more singles and shows up his sleeve, a banner year awaits the Bay Area boundary-breaker.
