MATT BARKER | priorylive

Matt Barkers career spanning over 15 years and 3 continents, began with residencies for Revolution Bars, which led to him performing up and down the Uk, playing house and disco with the brand.

This led to recognition for their Revolution DJ of the Year award and soon Matt’s style and approach saw him performing alongside international acts at Speedqueen, The Space, Mint Club, Gatecrasher and many more.

After joining forces with 3 other local artists including Doorly, Matt created the club brand Afterparty. What started off as a workers’ party swiftly outgrew two venues and became one of the North’s biggest warehouse parties.

Afterparty went on to be voted clubnight of the year by Galaxy FM and Mixmag, and attracted huge acts including Fatboy Slim, Armand Van Helden, Pete Tong, Annie Mac, Groove Armada, Calvin Harris, Sebastian Ingrosso, Chase and Status to name a few.
