About Me
Rapidly becoming a recognizable face in the dance scene, Kares has been enamoring partygoers across the United States as her infectious positive attitude envelops dancefloors both big and small as she drops her signature funky, progressive sound. Her innate ability to get the crowd moving stems from her long-time passion for dance music, and years spent as a cheerleader by day, nightclub employee by dark as she worked at several local spots. Spending most of her time in clubs in both Boston and New York City, Kares cites her initial inspiration for jumping on the decks as the likes of great djs Ferry Corsten, Armin van Burren and Paul Van Dyk, while crediting several dj/producer friends for teaching her the tricks of the trade. Kares has an energetic, refreshing style that fades the boundaries of several genres, from progressive trance to breaks and back through on a funky ride that keeps people dancing all night long. A sampling of the cities Kares has played includes Pittsburgh, Jackson, Memphis, Seattle, Portland, San Diego, Tampa and Springfield, where she held a monthly residency. This past spring took Kares on an adventure through some East Coast party cities – New Orleans for Mardi Gras, and of course, Miami for WMC ’05, where her gigs included the XM Radio-broadcast CSI Miami Party at Harrison’s with D:Fuse and the well-on-its-way-to-infamy Plastic Sex party, featuring a Boston vs. NYC dj showdown. On the local scene, Kares plays a variety of parties in Boston and the surrounding area, and was one of the featured djs at the MySpace 2004 Halloween Party at Axis. She has appeared on several radio shows in every corner of the country. From manning warm-up duties for djs such as Icey, Baby Anne, and Simply Jeff, to rockin’ out unique peak-time sets in various locales, Kares has well-beyond proven that from here, there’s nowhere to go but up.
