Father and son. Des Grant and Simba bring a night of RnB, disco, boogie, hip hop, house and retro club classics.
Des Grant is a Preston DJ with over 40 years of experience, known for his upbeat energy and engaging style. He began his career playing weddings before establishing himself in soul and disco, leading to residencies at well known venues in Preston including Squires and Browns RnB Bar.
Across his career he has played to crowds that included artists such as Alesha Dixon, Jazzie B, Kenny Thomas, Alexander O'Neal and Chris Brown.
He later worked with Butlin’s hosting soul weekenders and 70s and 80s events, and has performed at venues including Ronnie Scott’s. His Summer Breeze event in Corfu won Best Soul Holiday Abroad in 2017.
Simba represents the next generation, blending boogie, jazz funk, disco, house, hip hop, techno and bruk. Starting at age 16, he built his reputation on the local DJ circuit and through work with Rock FM.
His productions and DJ sets have gained support from The Blessed Madonna, Dimitri from Paris and Larry Heard, along with backing from Mr Scruff. His vinyl releases have sold out internationally and his recent work continues to build momentum.
Expect a night focused on quality music and a strong atmosphere from two generations of DJs.
