| | Laird grew up near Chicago, immersed in the vibe of the original house music scene during the late '80's, buying records and djing numerous warehouse and renegade parties. A classically trained pianist of a dozen years and modern day bohemian, Laird moved to San Francisco in 1990 and immediately became involved in the explosion of the West Coast rave scene, the obvious path for an English and Philosophy major. Since then he has played in most clubs on the West Coast and for numerous clubs, festivals, warehouse parties and special events throughout the United States and Europe. From Burning Man to Xingolati, Coachella to Cirque de Soleil, Laird is renowned for his dirty funky house and raw psychedelic breakbeat sessions ... rocking the dancefloor just right. ||||| Laird also organizes and/or is a partner in several of San Francisco's street fairs and special events, including "SuperHero", "How Weird", "Burning Man Decompression", "Inferno Paradiso", "Southpark Tempo D'Arte" and "Get YER Freak on!". He has conceptualized and helped bring to reality several of the largest camps At Burning Man, including LUSH (2004) and Boombox (2002-03). ||||| "We would like to say that if you have not seen Laird, and you like funk and cowboy hats, you CANNOT MISS this monster of funk!" DJ Lorin/BassNectar. Look for more releases and remixes in the future.
