Hey I’m Gary Boys and I’m here to spread the love through music :)
I was born in South London and my musical tastes were influenced at a young age by my mother who would endlessly play Stevie Wonder and Tamla Motown music. As well as Tamla, I would be subjected to sixties music such as Neil Diamond, the Rolling Stones, soul and disco with Saturday Night Fever a movie smash hit that just made you want to dance.
I’ve now moved to Henley-on-Thames which is surrounded by a wealth of musical talent and festivals like the Henley Regatta, Rewind Festival, Henley Festival and the Reading Festival.
As a kid I would tape tracks off the top 100 Radio 1 show and crudely mix them, erasing the DJ’s voice. At 14 I had started my first mobile disco and called myself Street Life. I gigged around South London just enjoying the pleasure of entertaining young and old with a varied juke box selection of music from any genre.
Things really have not changed except that I am influenced by dance music now and like many seek Ibiza as a Mecca for sound and i play all genres and work best with a varied crowd of all ages .
I cater for
Marquee events
Corporate functions
Festivals
Parties
Weddings
Clubs
I offer a full range of musical journeys and experiences which can incorporate DJ One Deck with live musicians accompanied by singers, bands, brass instruments or percussionists .
With an Army of music spanning every Generation and with live acoustic sets to accompany me when needed DJ One Deck Boysie is here to play Music for The People, with Mic work and an open request list, my challenge is to play your music into my sets and this way no 2 gigs are the same.
So step back to the past, step forward for the future and customise your event and create an occasion not to be forgotten.
I also play with live Top Class Musicians that compliment the music i play and you can request additional members to join me from Congo Players , Violinists , Saxophonists and Live Singers and we have our own pre chosen artists that compliment the work that i do or you can just pick me solo .
