With his diverse sound and infectious energy on the decks, Jodie tears up the UK dancefloors wherever he plays. He is adored in Southern Africa and Botswana, where he gigs annually and his biggest fan base reside. He has played alongside mega SA artists, including Black Coffee, Shimza, Culoe De Song, Heavy K, Da Capo and Black Motion.

His vim and vigour have led him all around the UK, pushing the music he loves and performing for different crowds, including celebrity after parties and fundraisers, including for British actor Idris Elba.
