Heidi is an energetic and charismatic force in electronic music, shaped by growing up in Windsor, Canada, on the border of Detroit, where the sounds of Detroit and Chicago left a lasting mark. After moving to London in 2000, she worked at Koobla Records and Phonica Records, where she became deeply immersed in the dance music scene. This led to meeting key artists and producers, picking up DJing, and touring internationally with Berlin’s Get Physical crew. A three-year stint in Berlin followed before returning to London to host BBC Radio 1’s In New DJs We Trust and later her own Radio 1 Residency, championing underground electronic music for nine years. In 2009, Heidi launched her renowned Jackathon parties and the accompanying label Jackathon Jams, built around energy, unity, and dancefloor magic. She has since played the world’s biggest clubs and festivals, including Glastonbury, Movement, Sonar, Creamfields, and Ibiza’s most iconic residencies. Still at the forefront today, Heidi continues to tour globally and in 2023 introduced Heidi presents Hi-Jacked, a fresh party series rooted in the original Jackathon ethos. With infectious energy behind the decks, wherever Heidi goes, she brings the party.
