As one half of the duo behind scene-leading label Solid Grooves, PAWSA has enjoyed an ever-burgeoning career over the past decade. Since 2016 he has held annual residencies in Ibiza and regularly tours clubs across mainland Europe. In 2021, he won Best Producer at DJ Mag’s Best of British Awards.
PAWSA released his debut EP, Pilot, in 2014 via the renowned Lost Records label, a key player in the U.K.’s techno and house music scenes. The following year, he founded Solid Grooves alongside DJ Michael Bibi – the sister company of Solid Grooves club night, which hosts regular happenings in London, Ibiza and Berlin.
This past summer has seen PAWSA perform at Circoloco Amsterdam and Chicago’s ARC Music, among many other major festivals. In July, he made a surprise appearance at Bibi’s One Live event at London’s Finsbury Park.
Meanwhile, Gunnersbury Park, which can hold up to 30,000 fans, has become something of a central hub for major British dance music events in recent years. Throughout summer 2024 alone, the park played host to the electronic-focused Waterworks Festival, a drum ‘n’ bass weekender (DnB Allstars), and headline gigs from Annie Mac and Fisher.
