INTRODUCING OUR SUPPORT FOR FRIDAY 🤝

Hailing from the vibrant music scene of the northwest of England, Gren has been a part of Cardiff’s musical landscape for a few years, both as a solo artist and as part of joint venture, .cdf - known for their banging Cardiff parties and minimal house releases.

Chupsy is a familiar face when it comes to a Groove party. From spinning some old skool jungle at 4AM KRU, traversing through techno at our first Bar 105 event, or laying down some of his favourite 90s House and Techno as he will be this Friday.

Usually found warming up the room at a Groove party or as a resident for CYNT, Shep will be taking us through some of his favourite garage house and deep house tunes. An avid record collector, expect some uncovered gems from the depths of the 90s.
