Breakthrough homegrown DJ John Gibbons is riding high on the success of his single 'P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)' which pays homage to Michael Jackson's irresistible pop vocal and freshens up proceedings with danceable bass and synth lines.

John Gibbons started DJing at the tender age of 15, quickly building his name in Dublin’s growing club scene.

Success on pirate radio and a permanent slot on national radio followed.

2016 saw Gibbons take a major step towards mainstream international crossover with breakout single ‘Would I Lie To You’ going top-ten in Ireland and certified silver in the UK

Let's hope the coming years see John Gibbons go from strength to strength.
