Feisty
biography
Known for her long association with Sydney's premier underground venue Phoenix, Feisty is one of Australia's most popular tribal-tech house djs.
It is Feisty's original approach to her tribal sound that has made her stand out. Sexy, hypnotic, hip grinding rhythms and rolling baselines characterize the Feisty sound.
Beginning her career in 1999, it wasn't long before she caught the attention of the punters and Sydney's major party promoters. Within two years, Feisty played her first major party, Mardi Gras 2001, and now regularly performs for up to 15,000 people at the world famous Mardi Gras and Sleaze parties as well as Inquisition, the largest annual leather party in the country.
Feisty has cemented her credentials in the Sydney dance scene with top notch residencies, most notably her four year stint with Crash @ Phoenix, an Oxford Street institution, as well as Queer Nation at Home (Australia's largest nightclub). With numerous special guest appearances including Gayday, WoofClub, The Sensual Ball, the world famous Hellfire Club and Homesexual at Home, as well as national touring for Tropical Fruits events, Crash, ZIP and DV8, she's got a name that stands for something and the talent to back it.
Few DJs can play to a mixed crowd, a womens' event and then onto a men-only leather dance party all in one night. Feisty's appeal and ability to play to the room makes her one DJ who can!
During the Crash days, Feisty added another dimension to her career, teaming up with Mandy Rollins with whom she shared the dj duties. Together they created a Sydney institution and put their own 'brand' on the Crash sound. Since then they have continued working together including playing back-to-back at some of Sydney's largest events. Today the Feisty & Rollins combination is one of the most popular dj duos on the Sydney scene.
With a passion for the intimate dance floor, Feisty's career in the DJ world has moved her from cocktail bars, VIP spaces, private parties, corporate fashion events, back rooms and to full fledged dance party halls with thousands of people culminating in 20,000 people for Mardi Gras.
If you believe in original mixing, style, journey and forethought into music and track selection of substance enhanced by a luscious sound quality, then you need to treat your ears to Feisty.
Whether it's an intimate underground venue, or the main room of a major circuit party you can be sure that Feisty will move you.
