Headline DJ
Annie Mac
Annie Mac is most well known for her Radio 1 show, The MASH UP, where she broadcasts 2 hours of dance music around the world every Friday night. Her show began in July 2004, when, as a virtual unknown, she impressed Radio 1 bosses with her demo's and her determination. Since then it has gone from strength to strength, attracting a host of loyal followers from around the world, (her show sits comfortably in the top 10 most listened to again programmes in BBC Radio) and Annie has established herself firmly as part of Radio 1's In New Music We Trust evening output. Her show has broken boundaries for having no limits in terms of the music it represents, she plays everything from Drum & Bass to Disco to Hip Hop to Electro House...
Annie has DJed since she was 19 and since her radio show has taken off she has risen through the ranks incredibly fast. She is respected underground and overground, meaning she won the 'Player Of The Year 2006' award from iDJ magazine over Bob Sinclar, Justice, Switch and many others. This is a girl who can present Top Of The Pops and play Room 1 in Fabric in one weekend. She supported Fatboy Slim last year at his Beachparty in Portrush N. Ireland, and played The Terrace at Amnesia in Ibiza across the summer... while maintaining her commitments to her favourite more underground clubs back in the UK. 2008 sees her stepping up a gear, hosting her own arena at Creamfields, and playing bigger and better slots at all the major festivals, from Global Gathering to Bestival, from Glastonubury to Fortdance in Russia.
'Annie Mac Presents' is fast becoming a club brand to be reckoned with taking over the best clubs in the UK each autumn. After three massively successful, sold out 'Annie Mac Presents' tours over the last three years, (last year the tour saw Annie playing alongside DJs and producers across the board, from High Contrast to Klaxons, from Erol Alkan to New Young Pony Club, from Pendulum to Mylo from Justice to Switch..) The Annie Mac Presents tour 2008 is looking to be bigger and better than ever... watch this space.
Through the respect of her music choices on BBC Radio 1 and her ever increasing DJing accomplishments, Annie Mac always attracts crowds and her ability means she always impresses them... 2008 is already her year...
