TigRess (Victoria)
TigRess got her first taste of playing live when she stepped up to play a New Year's party in Kelowna in 2013. Playing alongside 5 accomplished DJ's, she quickly showed her natural prowess with her flavourful taste in music selection. As the dance floor filled up it was clear this tiger had earned her stripes. She was hungry for more and sunk in her teeth, securing a regular club night in Kelowna before moving to Victoria in 2014. Since that time, she’s been refining her craft while playing shows in Vancouver and private parties in Victoria. She also held a resident DJ slot on Funky Beatz Radio in the UK for 3 months. A fierce music lover, she brings contagious energy and joy with her when she’s lighting up a dance floor. TigRess is always on the hunt for that new sound and brings you the best of house, bass, jackin, funk, ghetto funk, hip hop and dance.

Thomas P (Victoria)
Disco veteran, after-hour innovator and long time Staple of the Montreal underground scene, Thomas P is a dj for the party-minded.
After playing virtually every dive bar with a worthwhile low-end and holding residencies at some of the most established and underground venues in Montreal, Thomas is now back in his home town of Victoria, bringing his signature ‘feel good’ vibes and charismatic, energetic presence.
His blending of different eras and multiple genres always makes for irresistible, body-shaking music.
If you've fallen in love on a dancefloor six times in one night, if you've sold your soul to the disco gods, there was a good chance Thomas P was the one making all your dreams come true.
Thomas has been for making parties happen for nearly ten years, promoting and djing all over Montreal. He has held down residencies at FaggityAssFridays, LegWork, Velvet Confessions, and the DiscoDungeon to name just a few as well as hosting his own signature disco series PonLeDisco and djing and booking for the infamous afterhours clubs SilverDoor and The TornCurtain.
He's now bringing that experience and expertise here to Victoria.
