We are delighted to have him back on the Bacon Fat decks. Expect the weird and wonderful but a pumping dancefloor is guaranteed!! 🔥🔥

Floor filler of the week!!

This stomping rarity nearly caused a riot on the dance floor when Simon Sye Saxon dropped the needle on it at the last Bacon Fat!! It’s not just good it’s really really really good!

⭐️ SPECIAL GUEST⭐️

Just back from taking the SYMCO Weekender in Wisconsin by storm, Rockabilly wonder boy James Schembri is returning to the Bacon Fat decks, spinning nothing but rowdy early R&B scorchers! He’s not just a master of primitive rock and roll guitar playing, he’s a mighty fine record selector! 💥💥💥

Floor filler of the week!!

This slice of mid-tempo R&B heaven had the whole dancefloor bopping and swaying when Jeremy ‘The Kid’ Robinson dropped it into his guest dj spot at the last Bacon Fat. So sweet!! Pure joy.
