Frequenting the nightlife of Hobart, you begin to notice the same faces providing the backing track to your weekend shenanigans. For a small city, it’s packed full of talent, and DJ Mad is no exception. From his regular spots at Mobius, The Brunswick Hotel, & T42, to an extensive list of support gigs and festival shows, the love of his craft is made clear by the smile he wears from behind the decks, and he’s one of few who still loves to share a brew with anyone who appreciates music as much as he!

With a personal penchant for Hip-Hop, this Launceston native has developed a niche for people pleasing, with a vast catalogue of genres up his sleeve. The conservative dinner crowd at local restaurants, the night owls in favoured after dark haunts, and the masses at the likes of The Falls Festival and Breath of Life, DJ Mad (Luke Stagoll) has done it all.

Bliss n Eso, being his biggest (and favourite) gig, is the top of an incredibly impressive list for a DJ of humble beginnings in 2012. Featurecast, Spenda C, Funkoars, Nick Thayer, and Kid Kenobi are some of the highlights of over 25 support shows, plus sets at festivals including MS Fest, Fresh Rave, Breath of Life, and Fractangular Gathering. Not one to shy away from new experiences, you may also catch DJ Mad at weddings, birthday parties, and charity events.

Now launching his company ‘Music After Dark’, DJ Mad is available to create an event to remember for your birthday, wedding, celebration, end of year function, or anything else! Approachable, affordable, and flexible are the key things that this performer brings to your nights, so don’t hesitate to get in touch if you are looking for something fun!
