Tonight Your DJ Is...

My good friend Stephen McCann, AKA Flatsteve recently got the below snap of me when I was DJing at a wedding. The wedding was in Largs, which is just outside Glasgow and just inside civilisation!

The picture captures me in full flow during the party. As you can tell, I'm certainly not a DJ who stand motionless behind my decks.

My ethos is, if I'm not enjoying myself then nobody else will.

Feel free to print the picture off to keep the kids away from the fireplace!

Oh What a Night... With Chitterybite!


I’ve had the absolute pleassure of working with many bands whilst DJing / entertaining at weddings. However, few have been as much fun as Chitterybite ceilidh band!
I’ve always thought that a disco and ceilidh compliment eachother perfectly. I  often call ceilidh dances when the client hasn’t book a band, but you can’t beat the real thing.
The Chitterybite Ceilidh Band have an established track record operating as a ceilidh collective providing top quality traditional musicians for corporate and private ceilidh dance events, Scottish evenings, weddings and Burns Suppers.
Like me, they place great importance on their role as callers and every Chitterybite Lineup features this important individual who helps instruct with the dances and entertains the dancers with some good crack!
Quite simply, they are fantastic fun!
So, if you want to have your wedding guests groovin’ to disco and jigging to ceilidh, book the perfect combination – www.discotherapy.com & www.chitterybite.com

For Those About to Rock...

I'm not ashamed to admit it, the first album I ever owned was the timeless classic, Appetite for destruction by Guns 'n' Roses.

It's an album that, in my opinion, redefined music as we knew it. The album encapsulated the raw and gritty edge that the individual members brought to the band.

This album was my introduction into, not only the world of music, but the universe of Rock.

Growing up with two older brothers, who listened to bands like Motorhead, Frank Zappa, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Aerosmith (before they were commercial), The Alice Cooper, etc. My childhood was entrenched with rock royalty and musical genius.

When I've finished playing a gig, whether it's a wedding, birthday, engagement party or corporate doo, these are the bands that I listen to on the way home. Rhianna, Black Eye Peas & David Guetta seem like a distant memory by the time I roll into the driveway with Slash blazing out a guitar solo on my car stereo.

Although Disco Therapy has, in many ways, been a culmination of dream for me, my next brand / project truly Rawks!

I'm bringing my childhood musical influences to a party near you!

So, if you prefer Black Sabbath to the Black Eyed Peas, Kiss to Keisha, Cream to Coldplay, Disturbed to David Guetta, Pearl Jam to Paulo Nutini and Metallica to Michelle McManus (lol), then RAWK DJ is for you.

We're bringing good old-fashioned rock to a party, wedding or corporate function near you. So, break out your air guitar and stay tuned (excuse the pun) for the launch of Rawk DJ.

For those about to RAWK!!! We salute You!
