Jeff Kirkwood was born in Bermuda and has lived up to his Gypsy heritage by leaving home at 14, after soaking up all the fresh reggae he could, to live in Toronto, Vermont, San Francisco, London, Bali, and now Barcelona. He went to school in San Francisco in 2005 for 2 1/2 years to study Electronic Music Production, but upon returning to Toronto he focused on the performance side of his craft. After winning The Last DJ Standing Competition (best upcoming Toronto DJ) at Str8 Nightclub in 2009 his trajectory took a very steep upward angle, and since then he has opened for such greats as the legendary Derrick Carter, Miss Honey Dijon, Tony Moran, Eddie Martinez, Carlo Lio, Stacey Pullen, Lady Bunny, and Cazwell, to name a few. Now he's had gigs all over Canada, the USA, Australia, Barbados, Mexico, several islands in Indonesia, France, Spain, England, Austria, Italy, the Toronto International Film Festival Opening Gala, and the incomparable BAAAHS bus at the Burning Man Festival.
