Jocelyn Brown has an extensive background in the world of dance and R&B, starting her career in the 70s before releasing a number of her own tracks in the 80s, including “Somebody Else’s Guy” and “Love’s Gonna Get You”. She has been a session singer for the likes of Mick Jagger and Diana Ross, toured with Boy George and Culture Club, and has recently continued her solo work, recording house music, as well as being featured in a number of dance hits and releasing her own gospel album in 2010.
Nicky Siano had his first DJ gig in 1971 at the age of 16. This was the start of a music career which has spanned decades and had a huge influence on the dance scene. In 1973, he opened New York’s ‘The Gallery’ with his brother Joe - a venue which gained a legendary reputation. As Weinstein of Vice said of Siano, ’(he) wasn't just present at the creation of dance music. He was the creation.’
