I have graduated as a Technical Theatre Arts student at the BRIT school, and am always looking to learn off others in the profession and build my skills in the industry.Currently a White Light Apprentice and always looking for new opportunities!

Music professional:
Chris Gadd (formerly DJ Goofy) has been building his presence in the DJ industry since he was just 6 years old. After shadowing his dad working as a Mobile DJ he soon got to grips with the concept and after a few years 'DJ Goofy' was born! He began to get his name into the industry using social media platforms, publishing bi-monthly mixes and other industry content to the likes of Facebook, YouTube and Soundcloud to a small but respective fan base.
8 years on and 2013 proved to be a milestone for Chris' DJing career; winning 3 competitions and bagging a weekend of performances at BPM I PRO - the UK's biggest DJ & Sound/Lighting event at the Birmingham NEC. Little did he know this started a chain of 4 consecutive appearances at the event under the names of Atomix Productions (Virtual DJ), Reloop and UDG Gear to name a few! This also led to the biggest highlight of Chris' career so far playing alongside the legendary Danny Howard, Marvin Humes and many more during Sure Run To The Beat at Wembley Park, London in September 2015.
Now 19, a BRIT School graduate and a ever-growing DJ talent, Chris is proving to have a promising future career as his opportunities begin to get bigger and better. 12 years on and Chris now DJs to a much larger client base including frequent appearances for Nightclubs, Birthdays, Weddings and other parties (including those for Crystal Palace Football Club, John Lewis and other corporate clients) Chris has also been fortunate to branch off and gain some other fantastic oppertunites in the live events industry - having worked behind the scenes at events for Diesel and even the BRIT Awards 2017! It's fair to say you will be seeing more of Chris Gadd in the entertainment scene for many years to come.
