DJ Shiva at Sketch

Last Thursday I invited down the incredibly talented DJ Shiva from LA to join me and my DJ friends on the decks at Sketch in London where I hold down a weekly residency. Forever the humble hustler, DJ Shiva casts a strong signal around Southern California and the world at large. She can be heard weekly on B-Real TV with Cypress Hill's B-Real and is a resident DJ for Jamie Foxx's Hollywood hangout The Foxxhole. She's also spun records for Janet Jackson and continues to work for award-winning producer Warryn Campbell. Her set went down a storm at Sketch and we're hoping to throw some more parties with her in the future! Right now she's touring across Europe so check the dates on her website and see if she'll be playing your city!
