Andy

Being a DJ in Dubai has its perks. Like DJing for Leonardo Di Caprio. And Orlando Bloom. Oh, and Roberto Cavalli, 50 Cent and dozens more at super swanky parties across the emirate. But aside from being in the right place at the right time throughout a lot of his career, Andy Swift’s trademark cool and commercial sound belongs on the dancefloor with the clubber. He first came to prominence in the city a decade ago when he competed in the prestigious Palme Middle East DJ Championship. He finished a highly respectable 5th in 2004 when he was the youngest entrant, and even better the following year to clinch 2nd, helping to raise his profile in the emerging Middle East city. Residencies came quickly for the talented DJ. First up was Boudoir, one of the longest running clubs in the Middle East, before he was talent spotted by Etoiles at Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi were he spent a year in the award-winning venue further honing his skills at one of the finest hotels in the world. From there, he landed one of the best gigs in the city at Zinc, playing to a packed out crowd of clubbers 7 nights a week. One of the most consistent clubs in the region, it straddles the line between cool and commercial perfectly, making it a perfect home for Andy Swift. Alongside that, he’s also the host and DJ of the best ladies night in town at the Dubai Marina Yacht club (as voted for by Time Out/What’s On) where he gets to play a more expansive sound. Other than that he also holds residencies in some of Dubais most sought out venues which include, MAHIKI, Q43 ,Atelier M , & Stereo Arcade Dubai To name a few !Worked with The CandyPants Brunch Launch In Dubai for a few years and Also responsible for the new WeBrunch concept at the all new Intercontinental Dubai Marina to a packed house every Friday !! Then took over all the Pizza express brands around dubai creating “THE STAGE” brunch every Thursday evening playing all the very best from now & then to a full houses week in week out !! He now runs ladies days at the All new W Hotel every Sunday mixing out some of the best house music around !! Musically, he’s an incredibly versatile DJ, happy dropping commercial house and soulful R&B, or switching it up and dropping disco, funk and 80s classics. Don’t just take his word for it though, ask Leonardo DiCaprio next time you see him…
