I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm Andy. I play the best new music and the biggest anthems across all genres. I'm a resident DJ with Regent Inns, owner of the Walkabout, Jongleurs and Bar Risa chains.
LATEST PHOTOS
You can catch me at Surfers in Bristol every Friday night, playing current chart, dance/R&B anthems and the latest funky/dirty/electro house tunes from 10pm til 2am. I play Saturday nights in the main room at Bristol Walkabout, spinning chart hits, big indie/alternative tunes and essential party anthems 9 til 2.
REFERENCES
"In over two years of working alongside him I have never seen or heard Andy play a bad set. His ability to choose the right track and use them at exactly the right point in an evening has been perfected and makes him a huge asset to any business.
"He is a keen professional and will often approach me with ideas he thinks will help the business and this is fantastic for me. He brings to the business numerous positive aspects and is a pleasure to work alongside."
