Thank you for visiting my dj page. You'll find my monthly gig guide above, and posters for upcoming gigs! Due to the rapid expansion of Forfar Autos, I am not taking any more bookings for 2025.
I started playing in 2006, and quickly found myself playing in nightclubs, and bars all over Ayrshire, and in Glasgow.
I soon went down the entertainments company route, co-owning a large entertainments company which supplied as many as 20 venues with most/all of their entertainments.
I was very fortunate to play thousands of nights in more than 100 venues over the years. I also held personal residencies in bars/clubs for as long as 7 years, and kept busy quiz nights going that long too.
We trained and supplied DJs/Karaoke Hosts/Quiz Masters, and were also out gigging ourselves 4-7 nights per week. After 7 years of this I decided to move into different businesses, and was glad not to be out every/nearly every night!
After a break of almost 7 years, during which I played only a small number of gigs, I started playing regularly again in late 2023. In May 2024, I moved back to Forfar, after almost 20 years away. I am quite happy playing as a solo-act and not having to manage lots of DJs, and equipment every weekend, or take phone-calls at 10am on holiday in Australia because someone can't get something working at a gig!
I'm very fortunate to be doing lots of gigs every week, working in venues in Forfar, Montrose, Brechin, Arbroath, Carnoustie, and Kirriemuir.
Initially, I made a name for myself as a bar/club DJ. As I'm a keen singer, I also enjoy hosting karaoke. I also host Interactive Multimedia Quiz nights, which I find very good for helping to make venues busy.
I very much believe in playing to the crowd, and I think that this is the main reason I've done very well out of DJ'ing. I'm comfortable with any genre, and music from 1950s onwards.
I genuinely like lots of different genres, if I had to pick a favourite, it would be Commercial Dance, particularly Trance, 90s/Old Skool.
I've played in pretty much every venue you could imagine, and at all sorts of private events including weddings, in high-end venues.
Due to other business commitments, I will only be playing on Saturday nights, in 2026, other than for Weddings.
