Saturday brings the Stop Showin’ Off Halloween Special. Residents me and Lucy Pink will be banging out a back-2-back party set and guests Captain Magic and The Last Skeptik will also be bringing the noise. It’s free entry all night and be warned; there will be dance-offs, drinking competitions and prizes for best dressed – all the info you need is here > CLICK <
Serious all lady line-up for this Queens of Hip Hop happening courtesy of the The Doctor’s Order at Big Chill House 4th September. I am, naturally, biased as Lucy Pink and myself will be spinning party tunes back-to-back but that fact aside, the stellar line-up of female talent in not to be sniffed at:
DJ Yasmin, DJ Kayper, Yarah Bravo (live), Sahasrara (live) and Lucy Pink & myself (back 2 back)
Big Chill House, 4th September 2010, free before 10pm £5 after

Last week’s Stop Showin’ Off was just as it should’ve been: packed to the rafters with great people, friendly vibes and lots of good tunes! Big shouts to our special guest The Last Skeptik and all those that made it down and danced your hearts out. The next Lucy Pink and Mildilla takeover of the Abbey Tavern is Saturday 28th August, which just happens to be the Carnival Bank Holiday weekend, so you can expect a super special selection of DJs, music and atmosphere. For more information check out our Facebook page HERE. Tell a friend to tell a friend, grab your dancing shoes and come throw down so moves!
I’m a notorious nag I am and I’m not about to stop until you all pull your finger’s out your bums and come to Stop Showin’ Off this Saturday! The USP’s are ridiculous: It’s at the Abbey Tavern in Kentish Town (easy public transport links), it’s free to get in, there’ll be everything from Soul, Funk to hip hop thanks to DJ’s Lucy Pink, myself and The Last Skeptik spinning for your audio pleasure and the atmosphere is nothing but friendly and chilled! There’s also a massive beer garden for you to catch some evening rays in. So come and support our anti ‘too-cool-for-school’ revolution!
June not only brought my birthday and the commencement of my 31st year on this planet but it was also the first ‘Stop Showin’ Off‘, Lucy Pink and Mildilla take over at The Abbey Tavern in Kentish Town, with very special guest Mr Thing swinging by for a surprise visit. Luckily for you guys and gals this is a regular thang, as once a month we‘ll be taking control of the decks for the evening and each event we’ll have a special guest spinning for your audio and cerebral pleasure. It’s all about good music, shits’n'giggles and strictly no egos if you please! So if, like us, you’re bored of going to places where everyone’s far too kool for skool, come show your support and help us make every one a stormer.
Join our Facebook group and come drop the Catepillar at our next one on Saturday 24th July – the Last Skeptik will be our special guest DJ! Remember it’s FREE as well!
We bring the noise and you bring your dancing feet. Thanks to all that made it down, making it the messy mayhem it was. It’s a dance off, Stop showin’ off……
I tell you what, having a social life and a blog is practically impossible. No matter what you do, there’s never enough time to do all the things you need to in a week, find inspiration AND then get blogging. Last week and a bit has been epic, a whirlwind of day-jobbing, Soundclashing, having the Frank Butcher lurgy, gig reviewing and, the best bit, djing at a very nice PR agency’s press day (check out the setting above) for two days on the trot! Best moment was probably being told hip hop and the like were no go when majority of my vinyl is exactly that. But, with a little bit of imagination, my lovely mate Terry lending me some amazing remixes and mash-ups AND with the one like Lucy Pink co-piloting the second day, it was all good. Exhausting but wicked.
So it seems, again, I’ve been a bit neglectful and haven’t blogged nearly enough this week!
This time round, I have a good excuse and there will be some exciting changes happening at www.airsngraces.com which I hope you’ll like! Shortly, you’ll be able to see the fruits of my labor on here, starting with an exclusive AnG ‘first’ next week. All I’ll say is, keep checking back for more updates.
There’s also a really exciting new project I’ve undertaken with Lucy Pink and Hot110. Again, I can’t say much about it now but I’ll keep you posted.
Bottom line, please stay tuned!
Miss Lucy Pink is one to watch! If you’ve not picked her up on your radar yet you soon will. This one woman tour de force is flying the flag high for UK hip hop and is a breath of fresh air the scene desperatly needs. With her own show on Diesel U Music radio every Thursday 6-8pm she plays all the latest and greatest UK hip hop offerings. I can’t tell you how excited I am not only to see another lass doing her thing, proving that intelligent women do have an important role to play in the hip hop world, but who is also willing to speak up and tell it how it is. This lady is destined for big and great things and we at Airs n Graces adore her, so show some support and check out her show and her podcasts!
I’ve just interviewed her for The Suffrajets which will be up next week, so be sure to check it out.
