Festa: Platinum Presents Brooklyn Matt Watkins Short Round Rojdar

BROOKLYN BIO
BROOKLYN is a DJ, performer and creative genius who in just two years has made her mark on the Australian dance music scene.

With her distinctive girly street swag style, Brooklyn has claimed every major dance floor across the country from Platinum Nightclub on the Gold Coast, Family Nightclub in Brisbane, down to Marquee and Pacha in Sydney, Billboards in Melbourne and everywhere in between.

Her stellar performance has also taken her across the Pacific Ocean to the biggest venues on the Asian continent in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam to date.

An impressive moment in her career was touring to the North and South of Vietnam with global megastar David Beckham to promote his whiskey, Haig Club.

She hit the summer music festival circuit in 2014 with shows at Stereosonic and Future Music where she shared the main stage with the headliners.

For Brooklyn, performing is a moment in time when she lets go of everything and loses herself in the energy of the crowd. Music has always been her escape and she does the same for her audience, giving them that feeling of breaking free from reality.

The dance floor becomes body-hugging when Brooklyn is in the booth, playing big room, electro-house, the latest anthems and anything with that deep pounding bass. The crowds can’t take their eyes off her, as she is an all-round performer erupting with dance moves any moment she can get away from the decks.

With over 120k followers on social media and growing Brooklyn is known for connecting with her supporters by giving them a glimpse into her personal life on-tour and at home. Some lucky dance floor enthusiasts even get a ‘selfie’ with her as she often spends time greeting the masses after a set.

Brooklyn has set her sights on releasing her own original tracks and touring the USA.

Brooklyn is a promising artist who never stops evolving – “It’s my goal to put on big shows with amazing dancers, banging fireworks and costume changes…I want to do it all,” she said.
