Samantha Michelle

Date TBA

Known for her upbeat groovy sound, steeped in its vintage authenticity, Samantha's called to DJ for major fashion houses, global conferences, media outlets, festivals, clubs, galleries, and events. She’s opened for music legends, including the likes of Mark Ronson, Miley Cyrus, Bachman Turner Overdrive, and Robby Krieger (The Doors). Her DJ career kicked off one night at The Groucho Club (London), she soon found herself performing around the UK, honouring her love for the 1960s and 70s. She went on to host a show on Soho Radio where she played lost soul treasures, and interviewed contemporary bands. Passionate about storytelling, she’s also an actress and filmmaker, spearheading projects that stir and uplift, marking her films with the same sophisticated, nostalgic signature that stamps her DJ sets. With the US now as her base, she’s ceaselessly travelling, performing everywhere from the French Riviera to Burning Man to the Swiss Alps. She remains committed to a sound that is definitively soulful, as she fuses the classics with hidden gems, working in electronic elements, moving swiftly between the genres of soul, ska, funk, disco, and the bass of it all for her- rock and roll.
