Abi Clarke
Tuesday, July 1st - 3 p.m./5 p.m. - LA OLA (Free)
Abi started djing in 1996 as a resident at a weekly night ‘DO ME A FAVOUR’ in London’s West End playing a mix of soul, jazz funk, boogie, lovers rock and rare groove. This led to her own weekly nights at The Vibe Bar (Brick Lane) and Tongue and Groove (Brixton) as well as a twice weekly residency at The Cafe de Paris (VIP rooms) and The Met Bar, Park Lane. She has played as a guest DJ at numerous UK clubs over the years including Balance with Gilles Peterson, Mind Fluid with Kevin Beadle, WarBox with Ashley Beedle, Destination Out with Ross Allen, 45 and Beyond with Dr Bob Jones, the legendary FAITH mansion house party and It’s So with Ronnie Herel to name but a few.
In 2020 Abi’s re edit collaborations with Ashley Beedle were released as an EP ’Sliced With Love’ on the GAMM imprint. Her musical taste is eclectic but she remains a soul girl at heart. When not playing music Abi is an artist, focusing on painting, music inspired collages and screen printing. She is also a keen collector of art and curator of exhibitions. On a choisi Abi pour animer cette après-midi à La Ola que l’on espère farniente mais aussi dépaysante musicalement.
