I’m Tommy K, a professional multi-genre DJ.
My job is to make people smile and dance, often at the same time! I do this by mixing music across styles and decades, emphasising fun, danceability and the occasional surprise.
Based in Nottingham, I regularly travel across the UK and internationally to perform.
I sold out my first event in 2009 and I’ve never looked back. Music has taken me all over the world playing at festivals, clubs and parties. I cover all styles of music, all kinds of events, and have been a professional DJ for over 10 years. I pride myself on reliability, listening to my client’s needs and — most importantly — keeping the audience happy!
3 career highlights so far:
Playing Glastonbury Festival to 5,000 people
Winning the Reggae Vinyl Championship in 2023
DJing for LinkedIn in Soho, alongside Steven Bartlett (Diary of a CEO / Dragon’s Den).
Wherever I perform live, the audience understands that music is amazing across genres, and I want to surprise and delight them with transitions that cross boundaries. Music is something that brings people together and I’m grateful to share that joy through my work.

LinkedIn Event, HERE @ Outernet, Soho | In October ‘24 I was booked to DJ at this 2,000 capacity London venue. The brief was to provide a chilled, atmospheric back drop during the day, then a groovy cocktail party in the evening. With the help of Marcus Joseph on sax and Miriam Willott on drums, we delivered! The music blended between hip hop, jazz, disco and funk and the client was extremely happy. Photo credit: Miranda Parry

Rescue Rooms, Nottingham | Most Saturday nights, I’m at Rescue rooms, playing a feel-good selection of 60s–90s throw-backs in the main bar. It’s all about the warm, analogue nostalgia of Disco - Soul - Classic Rock - New Wave - Funk & Motown, between 10pm-3am.

The Carousel, Hockley, Nottingham | This is a great community venue and one I really enjoy playing at regularly. The music policy is open-minded and people come here for all kinds of reasons; whether that’s a workshop, co-working day or night-time event.

Hot Plants | This collaborative project with DJ Sasswell combines our shared love of plants and music. Still in it’s early stages, the project is based on building a community of people with shared interests. We get as many plants in a venue as possible, then play a mostly vinyl selection of Soul, Reggae, Alternative, Disco and a touch of classy Pop! You can follow us @hotplantsmusic
