A.k.a. Heather Cairncross

DJ Heather, Chicago's best-kept secret, has been spending the least amount of her time in Chi-town, let alone North America. As a regular on the international circuit, Heather's style has become synonymous with her special delivery of underground house, with elements of techno and classic disco. "Many things influence me, more than just one sound. If it¹s quality music and I enjoy it, I'll play that record. You have to bring a little bit of everything to what you do and that makes for a broader experience. Heather is a Chicago house pioneer trained in the art of transforming dance floors into jumpin'-bumpin' stomping grounds. Quickly becoming one of America's most in-demand DJs, Heather has demonstrated her sharp ability to take hold of the masses ­ from Vancouver to Toronto, to Berlin, France and Ibiza, Heather is tearing up the floors. DJ Heather has shared the stage with Jamiroquai and Black Grape. In 2000, many house-heads across the United States and Canada were lucky to catch her performing with Mark Farina on the San Francisco Sessions Tour 2000. DJ Heather is an "edutainer". In her own words "trying to incorporate music that you love and enjoy. To make a reflection of you out of this art form. It¹s an extension of you and you have to take it very seriously. And at the same time you take it all with a grain of salt. It is just playing records and it all really comes down to the party." On the production front, Heather has been working with Seasons Recordings and was recently featured in the release "Something Else". Heather's Tangerine mixed CD released on the Afterhours label led to tours across North America and more production and CD compilation opportunities. Look for an upcoming CD mix release on Nordic Trax, celebrating Sonar's 5 Year Anniversary, as well as her extensive North American tour beginning June 2003! With 10 years of experience behind her, DJ Heather has grown to become one of Chicago¹s main DJ exports and an artist who defies conformity, defines quality and continues to nurture her solid skills for the world of electronic music.
