Internationally renowned for delivering feel-good, genre-transcendent experiences to industry-leading music festivals, fashion brands, nightclubs, media outlets, members’ clubs, hotels and private events, Samantha Michelle is an electrifying tour de force of her own meticulous craft and creation.

Michelle has opened for music legends including the likes of Duran Duran, Nile Rodgers, Mark Ronson, LCD Soundsystem, Miley Cyrus, DJ Ruckus and Bachman Turner Overdrive, and has headlined shows with audiences in the thousands.

Her recent accolades include private events for brands such as Bulgari, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Harper’s Bazaar, Meta, Audible, Rolling Stone, Saks Fifth Avenue and Carolina Herrera. Just recently she performed at Paramount’s 2023 Grammy party and continues to play at Viacom and Wall Street Journal events during Cannes Lions.

By happenstance, Michelle’s DJ career kicked off one unforgettable night at London’s Groucho Club. A decade onward, this happy accident has materialized into a full-time focus as she continues to fill dance floors around the world. Toronto-born and London-bred, Michelle now splits her time between New York and Los Angeles, and vanguards a versatile sound that has taken her from Burning Man to Beverly Hills, the South of France to the Swiss Alps.
