They are a true delight to the senses and bring the pure joy and sounds of New Orleans. ★ TEQUILA MOCKINGBIRD ★ DJ SET His collection ranges from hot 20s jazz to heavy 60s rhythm and blues. “I like music that takes people outside of themselves. The best dancing happens when you're feeling, not thinking. If you've got a whole room of people feeling what you're playing then that's when the magic happens and you all get to lose yourselves together. That's why I like playing – to share and get down.” ★ PETER AYRES ★ DJ SET Long-time shag dancer, founder of Shag Pile and well known face on the international Shag scene, Peter will be playing some of his favourite fast music plus a few weird and wonderful curve balls to keep you on your to your toes!
