About DJ Ben Hesketh

Music, Memories & Positive Vibes! 15 years experience in Clubs, Bars & Weddings including huge venues across the north west of the UK!
DJ
Deeside
Public liability insurance of £10 million

My journey in music began at the age of 5 originally playing piano, but by my teens a love for chart, pop and electronic music lead to me starting out dj'ing taking my first booking at 15 in my local cricket club. After studying Music and Production for a few years, I gradually began to expand into dj'ing in clubs and bars, to be able to play my own edits & remix's. This lead to my first residency at Studio 24 in Bury, and eventually residencies across the north-west of the uk in venues such as Tiger-Tiger Leeds & Manchester, Revs De Cuba Liverpool & Vision Manchester. In 2018 and 2019 I did two summer seasons in Llorett De Mar at Rockefellers nightclub playing to holiday makers from across Europe and also performed at a weekly foam party for Croatian, Italian And German Bar Crawls. After returning to the UK i've since had a residency in Level Warrington & performed Guest sets at venues such as Mode In Burnley, while also returning to weddings, having worked alongside suppliers such as the award winning Exceed Events & Maximum Music. I fully believe in music making memories and that the best DJ's play the right song at right time in the right way to achieve this, no matter if thats a motown floorfiller or an underground House or RnB anthem.
