You want international, multi-talented and gorgeous? Look no further than Doctor Brighton’s very own sweetheart of the decks, the amazing Lizzie Curious….who talks to Queen Josephine.
How are you? “Hi QJ, I’m great thanks – just woken up after an amazing DJ gig last night in LA!”
Where can we hear you DJ? “I run my Curiosity Club party at Doctor Brighton’s on the last Saturday of every month. I’m also resident with Brighton’s Trickstar Radio every Wednesday at 12-2pm, and I stream the live show on Facebook so you can see me in action (there’s LOTS of jumping around!). I’m very lucky to have just finished a mini-tour of the US where I sang my upcoming single with Scotty Boy live and also DJ’d. I performed in San Jose and LA and it was so much fun, with brilliant crowds!”
What are you playing these days? “House music to put a smile on your face and groove in your heart, with a sprinkling of delicious disco!”
Any other projects going on? “Alongside my singing, songwriting and music production I teach at the Point Blank Music School, London, which I love. I have lots of new music coming out, so please keep an ear out on Soundcloud for the previews: www.soundcloud.com/lizziecuriousmusic.”
Fave song of all time? “Groove Is In The Heart by Dee-Lite. I even have a prized copy on vinyl. Scotty Boy and I have just covered it for a single. I re-sang the vocals and we’ve been getting such great feedback… that means so much to me!”
Best ever gig? “I played on the terrace at Space in Ibiza the year before they closed. It is such a legendary venue, and the vibe on the terrace was absolutely electric. I’m so glad I got to perform there before they closed their doors!”
Dream gig? “Well I feel very fortunate to be DJing in places I had always dreamed about when I first started playing vinyl all those years ago. From amazing boat parties in the Caribbean, London, Brighton, Washington DC and also the Groove Cruise (a three-day floating festival on a Cruise Ship for 4,000 people), plus so many amazing clubs around the world – every year it seems more of my dreams come true, so I’ll just happily wait and see what the future holds for me next.”
Guilty pleasure? “I absolutely love my 80s music… but then doesn’t everybody really love the 80s!?”
Describe yourself in three words… “Curious, energetic, smiley.”
