About Its Chris Benn
Chris’ musical upbringing combined with a genuine interest for the arts have given him musical knowledge beyond his years and a song library to match. His DJing career began in 2010 whilst doing a music production degree and he was fortunate to have his first gig in the prestigious Mayfair nightclub ‘Funky Buddha’. Since then, he’s played in many venues across the U.K. including Slug & Lettuce, Amazing Grace, Raffles (Chelsea) and Miranda.
Throughout the 10’s Chris was also tour DJ to 90’s Dance legend and MOBO Award Winner Baby D. He still occasionally joins her on stage. The experience he has gained over the years has led him to playing a private party for a Forbes-recognised individual and multiple international events in Portugal and France.
In previous years, when not behind the decks, Chris has dabbled in producing and writing. In 2023, he got back into the studio with a clear vision of his sound as a DJ and artist. His first rework of Cleo Sol’s ‘Why Don’t You’ was featured on DJ Spoony’s ‘The Good Groove’ Show on BBC Radio 2. His passion is deeply rooted in anything with a groove. Soulful House, Disco, Afro House, Soul, Funk and R&B are his favourite genres. It’s no surprise that one of the highlights of his career so far is sharing the stage with one of his Idols, Trevor Nelson.
When it comes to playing corporate gigs, Chris is no stranger to some of the world’s biggest brands. Google, Sky and Lind Group (Triumph Motorcycles, Porsche, BMW Motorcycles and Harley Davidson), are only a few names he’s worked with.
Chris is known for being a true open-format DJ with his ability to blend between genres. He is frequently complimented on his ability to read the room and play to what the crowd is feeling in the moment. When not playing out, you can hear Chris on ‘The Groove Show’ which he presents weekly on Shoreditch Radio. The demand for Chris’s skilled sets and infectious energy is only set to rise.

Brilliant atmosphere all night long!
Chris was great from the moment we first touched base, he listened to what Sadie and I were after and didn't fail to deliver.
The dancefloor was always full of energy and everyone was having a great time!
Great Evening Great Music!
Hired Chris for my Wife's Surprise 50th attended by 90/100 people - from the moment of booking Chris the communication was excellent, what music, arrival times, what was required and asking the relevant questions for the event - on the night all went to plan with timings etc perfect - an amazing evening and fantastic memories - well done Chris
Chris was excellent and I highly recommend him.
From my initial interaction with Chris through to the night itself, I found him to be professional and capable. He left me in no doubt that he would deliver. On the evening, he arrived well before the start time and provided excellent entertainment with our guests thoroughly enjoying the music he played.
His set up, including lighting, was smart and ensured our event looked high-quality. The dance floor was still very busy towards the end of his booking, but Chris kindly stayed on a little later and eased the dancers into the silent disco next door.
I would recommend Chris to anyone who is organising a complex event in need of an entertainer who is self-sufficient, reliable and provides a high-quality product.
Brilliant Set
At our work Xmas party on 25/11/22 Chris created a fantastic vibe that led to 90 people aged 20 to 70 to get on the dance floor and dance their hearts out . Chris picked all the right music that inspired everyone. Everyone said quite rightly that the Dj was brilliant. Everyone was so happy thanks to Chris!
Chris arrived on time , was totally calm and set up a brilliant dance area . Thank you Chris ! We will definitely book him again.
The best DJ ever!
We booked Chris for a joint 30th birthday at a venue in St Albans and from the get go, we knew that we were going to have a fab night! Chris was the loveliest, most professional DJ - taking requests from lots of different guests, bringing a great atmosphere and playing lots of club bangers! Chris had such good energy and even allowed us to extend our event later, which was an added bonus!
I would recommend Chris to all of my friends and family for any parties or events!
