Read on to find out all you need to know about Crazy P, the extremely exciting headline DJ booking and Live PA for our Christmas party at The Lightbox, Vauxhall.

Crazy P started life as a duo (Chris Todd & Jim Baron) in 1995 under their originally name Crazy Penis. Their debut album ‘A nice hot both with…‘ received rave reviews around the world and demand for live gigs went through the roof. As a predominantly instrumental band up until this point, Chris and Jim decided a singer would add another dimension to the band, especially on the live circuit so they started looking for a like minded muso to compliment the line up…enter Danielle Moore. Danielle, originally from Manchester was a DJ and vocalist who perfectly fitted the mould. Soon she started writing lyrics and melodies for previous Crazy Penis tracks and working with them on the second album.

As the band gelled and the chemistry kicked in Crazy P continued their output with some superb remixes on prestigious labels such as Paper Recordings and San Francisco’s Naked Music. In 2002 came the triumphant release of the much anticipated second album ‘The Wickedest music’. By this stage the original line up had grown to incorporate yet more muso influences. Today the full line up includes Danielle Moore: (Lead vocals) Chris Todd (Guitar/ Keys) Jim Baron (Keys, Guitars, Horns and Backing) Tim Davies (Bass, Vocals) and Matt Klose (Drums). This evolution brought with it a new sound, a factor clearly evident on The Wickedest Music. Crazy P had started a new chapter and has since gone on to play all over the globe.

Over the last few years the records have just kept flowing. From their uber cool 24 Hour Psychedelic Freak Out album to their most recent offering Stop Space Return, it seems that everything Crazy P touch turns to gold. Add to this some of the best received remixes such as their recent massive hit, the remix of DJ Mujava’s Township Funk and its easy to see why DMC described them as “the most exciting British dance act to evolve since Massive Attack” and were previously voted as recording the Album of the year in the HMV charts. Today they are signed to one of the UK’s finest imprints 2020 Vision and with a tour of Australia and New Zealand approaching and high profile gigs all over London, UK and abroad Crazy P certainly seem to be going from strength to strength.
