A family business built around work we love.
Tequila Sunrise Music is a family-owned Christian production and A/V integration company based in Gaston, North Carolina, with experience spanning nearly three decades of events, albums and installations.
Professional work without losing the family feel.
Our work has ranged from permanent A/V systems for churches and businesses to concerts, recording projects and duplication services. Through all of it, the company has stayed rooted in practical service, relationships and gratitude for the opportunity to do work we enjoy.
The Great Dane in the logo is not random: the company name traces back to the family’s first Great Dane, “Tequila Sunrise Barker.” Great Danes have been part of the family for decades, which also explains the longtime slogan: “Where the Big Dogs Come to Play!”
