GRAMMY Award-nominated DJ and producer Todd Terry is making a special visit to Warrington’s Parr Hall next month.
Todd is one of the world’s most celebrated figures in dance music and with almost two decades of dance floor domination under his belt the quality of his productions goes from strength to strength.
In the mid-90s, the Ministry of Sound’s eponymous UK label released A Day in the Life, a collection of Todd Terry tracks that had been causing dance floor panic; this led to a deal with Mercury Records and the first release, Keep On Jumpin’, featured a vocal workout from super-divas Martha Wash and Jocelyn Brown, together for the first time ever.
The song became a top 10 UK crossover pop hit and worldwide smash which Todd followed with the anthem Somethin’ Going On, a top 5 UK crossover pop hit.
Meanwhile, Todd continued to break new ground as a producer and remixer; from SNAP to Annie Lennox, George Michael to Bjork, Todd’s mixes bridge the ground between club cool and commercial accessibility.
In 1995, his remix for Everything but the Girl’s Missing became a worldwide smash, giving the British duo their first ever hit.
Tickets are £15 and will take place on Saturday April 15 at 4pm at the Parr Hall, Palmyra Square South, WA1 1B
