Liam has been DJing for over 7 years, and has had regular bookings for the past 3 years. Liam 1st started playing out when he was 18, in his hometown of Ballymena in Northern Ireland. He quickly built himself up a profile within the local scene and had 8 bookings in his 1st year on the circuit. A family move to Essex gave Liam the opportunity to spread his wings, and with a bit of persistance he gained work, and a weekly residency soon followed. He stayed in Essex for nearly 2 years and says it was during this time that he really got to grips with playing to a crowd. He returned to Ballymena with even more passion for the scene and went on to win a DJing competition run by Fergie and his mum (Keymix DJs). Soon after the work picked back up, and soon he was playing out every week.
