AWARD WINNING DJ, NIGHTLIFE INNOVATOR, MUSIC PRODUCER

What started as a mild obsession with big beat and trance records has turned into a fifteen-year career in the music and nightclub industries.  Promoting some of the biggest San Diego events during the early 2000's and holding DJ residencies at the the most sought after clubs wasn't enough for a young G-roy. In 2006 he launched the independent record label Fortune Music which would go on to release over 40 singles and mix CDs.
A steady stream of gigs and residencies across the United States brought G's unique style of mixing hip-hop, trap and house into various markets and tastemakers and crowds began to take notice.
Later G-roy began booking lineups and Djing for San Diego Block Party's large outdoor staged events. Booking acts such as Flosstradamus, The Knocks and Vicetone helped raise the bar for San Diego nightlife. 
Now residing in San Francisco, he continues to perform at eclectic music events up and down the West Coast.
