Honey Dijon is one of the most in demand DJs spinning on the international club scene today. Her growing reputation for amazing versatility, eclectic track selection and flawless skills is earning her bookings all over the world, from Paris to London, Munich to Sydney, San Francisco to Buenos Aires and everywhere in between.

Based in New York, Miss Honey’s recent gigs for such clients as Visionaire, Hermes, Chloe, the CFDA Awards, Loewe, Narcisco Rodriquez and other global tastemakers are making her one of the most sought after DJs for top fashion calendar events. Other headlining appearances include Berlin’s Love Parade, Respect is Burning in Paris and the annual Miami Winter Music Conference in Miami.

Although she spins a distinct Chicago sound with inflections of the deep New York Underground, Miss Honey prides herself on a style that is all her own. In fact, Honey is one of the few DJs in recent years to defy pigeon-holing. She draws from a wide repertoire of musical styles from old school Chicago house, disco, tech-house, tribal, funk, soul and r&b. As a gifted and experienced DJ, Honey knows how to manipulate any crowd. Whether she is easing them into a trancey vibe with the dark sounds of techno or lifting them up with pumping house, she knows how to rock a party.

A native of the windy city, Honey was first inspired by the legendary house sounds of such DJ pioneers as Ron Hardy, Derrick Carter, Mark Farina and Frankie Knuckles. When she moved to New York in the mid-90’s, Honey became great friends with even more influential DJs including the amazing Danny Tenaglia, who finally urged her to get behind the decks. Seducing clubgoers with her unique sound all over the world, she is becoming a must-see DJ in many cities. “I like to keep the focus on the music”, Miss Honey says. “My style is a blend of all genres, but instead of looking to the past, it’s all about the future.”
