Frankie DJ'd our wedding and boy did she deliver! We didn't want the classic wedding cheese, and instead wanted the right vibes to get people up and dancing! And it's safe to say, they (and we) were dancing all night long! We changed up some specifics re our music choices pretty last minute, and Frankie reacted quickly and made sure to match what we wanted. She did a great job of engaging everyone with a few surprises throughout the evening! And she was great at reading the room, and switching up the songs according to the crowd. Frankie absolutely delivered the vibes, and we're so glad we chose her as our Wedding DJ! Thanks Frankie!

Extremely happy. We had a disaster with a fall on the dance floor and ambulance arrived but Frankie quickly moved her equipment to the next room without any fuss and she kept the dance mood going

Frankie was the DJ for my husband's 50th birthday garden party and was totally professional, conscientious and creative throughout. The music that Frankie compiled with my husband's music tastes in mind was absolutely mind-blowing; so much so that my whole family and friends danced under the stars, all night long - I even saw a trendy, young passerby dancing outside our garden gate, who said that the music was 'totally awesome' and asked if he could join the party! Frankie also set up her own lighting equipment, which lit up the whole front of our house with a rotating assortment of cool, retro images. Furthermore, as an expert artist, she seamlessly blended her music around the sessions of a live band and an impromptu singing session with the mic, as well as playing the bongos, which were superb! All in all, you have our deepest gratitude, Frankie, for creating a magical birthday party for everyone to remember. It's our daughter's 21st birthday next year, so we will be in touch again soon!

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

I receive compliments on my creative mixing abilities and playful presentation style. When the audience is having a good time then I am having a good time! I am good at picking up on a clients music taste after just a few songs.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Dirty Martini, KOKO, Junction, Trinity Harrow, HER App, Soho Radio, 95.6 BRFM, Proud Bar Camden, Scala London, Head Of Steam, Tiger Tiger, Deer Shed Festival '22, L Fest '18, Glastonbury '15, LS6 Cafe, The Biltmore York, The Maven, Slug & Lettuce, TopShop, River Island, Timberland, Pitcher & Piano, The Cavendish, Champs... ...and many more!

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

MK, Disclosure, Terrence Parker, Angelo Ferreri, Mr. Belt & Wezol, Mark Knight, Idris Elba, Ferreck Dawn, Mousse T, Solardo, David Penn, Horse Meat Disco, Gorgon City, Route 94, Crazy P, Qubiko, Tom Zanetti... ...and many more!

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

Deer Shed 2022. I had a time slot in one of the large tents alongside my performing partner at the time, Jonnie One Biscuit. The tent was full of people who turned up just for us! I danced my a$$ off on the stage and the audience loved it. We were asked back again!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

Good communication makes the strongest partnership! If things change, let me know. I understand that last minute changes happen.

Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?

Absolutely. As a pro DJ, all my mixes are live. If you would like me in 2 places at once, I can provide this service.

How much time do you need to set up?

I arrive 1-1.5 hours before your requested set start time. For example, if you would like music from 2000-0000, then I will be there at 1830 to assemble equipment and make sure the technology and music is running smoothly.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

I curate a playlist after a 1 on 1 meeting with you to discuss your music tastes. This is your celebration after all! All special requests must be made no later than a few days before the event. This gives me time to get the tracks, analyse them in Rekordbox and subsequently export them to my memory sticks.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

I bring a large DJ Booth, DJ Decks (Pioneer XDJ - RX2), PA system (Alto Professional TS415 - Pair), Party lighting, bongos, microphone.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

I will source all your special request songs made in time for the event. My goal is to make your celebration bespoke to you! Just let me know in advance whatever songs you are after.
