Hi, I’m Danica the DJ!

 

After thirteen years of studying classical voice/piano and a lifetime of education, listening, and creating, music has always been my jam. Mixtapes have always been a part of my life. It all started with home taping the radio, then burning and writing on CDs, and now the jump to digital has made my personal soundtracks bigger than ever.

While working on degrees in history and psychology I picked up DJing as a side gig, fell in love, and for the last decade it’s been my livelihood! Alberta born and raised, I now live in Edmonton with my partner and our two dogs.

My playlist motivation is always the same: make good feelings happen. Some of the sweetest sounds in the world to me are people shout-singing along on the dance floor, the “Whoooo!” exclamation of realization when the next song mixes in and someone recognizes it, and guests telling me “I haven’t danced like that in years!” at the end of the night.
