Patrick Thompson aka Pat Powers has been Djing for over 25 years. Music has been a love affair since he was a youngster and would stay up past his bedtime to tape record (yes tape) the new release songs that were on the late radio show. Djing first started off in West Auckland in the late 90’s playing socials, birthdays, weddings and the occasional rave. He moved to Waiheke Island where he became a popular DJ for the growing Wedding and corporate functions that were heading to the island and played at all the main venues on Waiheke including Mudbrick Vineyard Goldie Estate, Te Motu Vineyard, Waiheke Island Resort, Cable Bay to name a few and as the island grew into a popular place of choice for weekends and day trips played daytime sets at Stonyridge Vineyard, Man O War, also dropping opening sets for artists such as Tiki Taane, Manual Bundy, Sachi , Optimus Gryme, Greg Churchill, Concord Dawn. A recent highlight has been playing the VIP room through the Women’s RWC and the epic final at Eden park. From the latest Club hits to the songs of the 60’s and 70’s the variety of events and gigs he has played gives Pat the experience that is capable of taking care of any type of event and his cooperative, professional and friendly personality will make an easy collaboration to help any occasion you have into something to celebrate and enjoy Now based in Whangarei he looks forward to bringing his experience and music knowledge to the ‘winterless north’..

Patrick was absolutely awesome. He fitted in very well and new what songs to play. He has a great PR with people. He was singing and dancing and having a great time. Would recommend him to others.

We absolutely loved our DJ Pat, he knew how to read the crowd, was very approachable . . . . Would definitely be looking for Patrick again for any future events we have.
