I had the amazing pleasure to play my first ever festival at one of my favorite places, Sequoia Sunrise. It was also my first time on CDJs and I made more than a couple mistakes live, so I re-recorded it with 87% less slips ups. You live and learn, but in the meantime enjoy some funky disco beats

Sequoia Sunrise DJ Set

heres a VERY SPECIAL mix from Sequoia Sunrise 2023! I was a bit more focused on the track selection then mixing, this set is definitely a huge range of songs I have a personal connection to. 

I'm so proud to have the encouragement of my friends to play some original music ive been working on. I decided to open my set with 3 originals, and perform vocals and guitar.  I was also joined by my buddy Sebu from Capital Cities to perform a cover of "nothing compares 2 u" and his big hit "Safe and  Sound"!   I made a switch to DJing 5 songs in, and  brought in a taste of my influences and closed it out with some bangers. enjoy! <3
