Seb Sharp is a man obsessed with music. Beginning a career in clubland at the rather cheeky age of 17, Seb stalked his fave DJs for tips and honed his skills as a trainee jock at the obligatory round of friend’s parties and weddings before turning professional at 24.
Since then he’s had fistfuls of residencies, including 10 years at notorious and celebrated gay venue Connections Nightclub and played alongside some of the world’s finest DJs – Deepswing, The Freemasons, Paul Johnson, Tiga, Freeform Five, Wayne G, Mark Moore, Princess Julia, Tracy Young, Bushwacka! and Meat Katie. Seb also appeared weekly on radio as host of his own house and electro mixshow ‘Da Funk’ on Groove 101.7FM.
Known for slick mixing, the ability to play a set crossing multiple genres and a love of working with live vocalists and musicians, Seb’s body of work shows what a music enthusiast can achieve with a record collection, the ability to read a crowd and a bucketload of determination.
