Influences are far and wide but range from New Orleans Jazz, to Eastern European, Greek, Turkish, Bulgarian, Roma and Klezmorim Music, Manouche Swing, to Acoustic Metal.

        DJ Redwah Siege 1.png

        DJ REDWAH

        1:00am

        Who is the mysterious DJ Redwah you ask?
        Wait is that the guy that just got married?

        Is he really DJing on his own wedding day?

        Well hopefully at this stage you shouldn't be asking those silly questions. DJ Redwah has spent years of his life listening to music, it has all come to this, one night, where (almost) all his best friends and family meet on one dancefloor. What will happen? Will anyone be able to keep up with him? You'll have to see it to believe it. Fair warning, get your legs ready.

          An act made up of many humans dreams of playing music together, will it work, will it be a fail? Some say this could be more of a comedy set than an music act, but only time will tell.
