Tommy Knuckles

Halifax, NS

When you hear the name Tommy Knuckles, so many great things come to mind. As a true veteran to the Halifax Underground music scene, he is not only a Halifax house music staple, but a driving force in the east coast’s electronic music pursuits. With 16 yrs behind the decks, many performance and production credits under his belt, Tommy has helped to craft quite a niche, not only for himself but for all of Atlantic Canada. As the Creative Director and Producer for the Synergy Stage at Evolve Festival over the last 8 years, he has helped to develop one of the very best and most genuine platforms for electronic music that exists on the east coast. With the genuine humility and vibe emanating from his soul, Tommy Knuckles IS the very embodiment of the loving spirit of Evolve.

As a performer and DJ, Tommy Knuckles has a keen focus on keeping the happy house music vibe alive. One show at a time, he has played all over North America including SmartBar in Chicago IL and Winter Music Conference in Miami. Known for dropping old school vocal house, lots of horns and sassy bass lines, Tom’s indisputable drive and natural talent has earned him his place amongst the best house jocks on the east coast.

Even with the back ground of a jazz drummer which deeply influence his music as a DJ, it’s always his smiling face and dancing legs that make him such a great addition to any party. Notorious for dancing up a storm in the DJ booth, Tommy Knuckles fun energy, funky music and genuine vibe will leave a smile on your face and your body begging for more.
