Always good to have a bit of a nudge

No fooling – with this epic lineup at nUdGe nUdGe WiNk WiNk! You’d be a fool to miss International DJ Stevie G, locally-based DJs Halo and Sammy KC as they join beloved Cunning Stunts resident DJ, Lord Sut, in the Shed at the Billi.

Get ready for an electrifying closing set from international DJ sensation, Stevie G! Hailing from Washington DC, Stevie G has taken his eclectic soulful sound worldwide. As a resident he’s rocked legendary venues like Potato Head in Bali, was hand selected to play for Snoop Dogg and Grace Jones, and spun vinyl or Prince at the infamous House of Secrets.

Returning to the Shed in a later time slot is locally-based DJ, Halo. A house and techno DJ born into the Byron Bay dance scene, Halo is a sonic storyteller. 

Making his Shed debut, DJ Sammy KC will showcase his love for all genres with a heavy influence of the UK sound. 

Cunning Stunts resident DJ, Lord Sut, mixes and masters the genres of Balearic, world and house, with sprinklings of dub for sensory peaks to every set he plays in the beloved Shed. 

Cunning Stunts lift you up on the first Saturday of each month, continuing their seven-year purpose to assist our local communities. 

Check it out this Saturday from 4pm at The Billinudgel Hotel.
