I started DJing at the age of 14. I grew up listening to house music because of my parents. When I was 13
\nyears of age I started to get really obsessed with it and so asked for decks for Christmas and when I was 14 I had my first residency in a local club. I played all over Ireland and Ibiza for the following 4 years but then had a break from DJing as I went to study Law at university. But I’ve been back at it a year now and loving it.<\/p>\n
\n
So what or who\u00a0has been the biggest inspiration to your music?<\/span><\/p>\n I would say again my parents have probably been the biggest inspiration to my music. My dad was a DJ turned promoter in Northern Ireland in the late 80s\/early 90s so I was constantly surrounded by DJs growing up, even Carl Cox was in my house when I was around 2 or 3. Also, a really good friend of my mum’s, Joanne, was an extremely popular DJ in Ireland in the nineties so she was a big inspiration as she was the first female DJ I ever met, I used to listen to all her house and garage mix tapes as well as a friend of my dad’s, Paddy Frazer, he got me hooked on Italian piano house. All the music I play today is inspired by that era.<\/p>\n Honestly my favourite thing to do when I’m not DJing is to be on the dance floor. I live for music and that’s why I’m here on the island. Or if I want to chill out I love relaxing on one of the many beautiful beaches the island has to offer with a huge gin and tonic in hand!<\/p>\n What has been the highlight of your career so far?<\/span><\/p>\n O Beach Ibiza of course! I absolutely love being a part of the great team of DJs that work there and joining Lovely Laura on Mondays! Playing in Amnesia when I was 17 was pretty spectacular too. And joining Hed Kandi’s International roster was really special too as I always loved the brand.<\/p>\n Everyone thinks there is a cool story behind the name and there isn’t one!
