YOU PROBABLY GET ASKED THIS ALL THE TIME, BUT HOW DID YOU GET INTO DJ’ING?
I actually lived in Australia for six years where I got my degree in marketing. From there, I worked in the music festival scene and moved into artist management and touring where I realised I wanted to be behind the decks. I took a few lessons from someone online and then I would go to Guitar Center for hours on end and practice on their equipment.
WHAT EXCITES YOU ABOUT YOUR INVOLVEMENT WITH SUPERDRYSOUNDS?
I think I’m a very unique and weird individual, so the fact that you guys are doing something I haven’t seen before with the SuperdrySounds gets me really excited. I think emerging, different genres is something that hasn’t really been done. I’ve been called sort of a black sheep for it, so I’m really excited to see where this goes and I love that you guys have started such a cool new trend.


WHAT MAKES YOUR SETS SPECIAL FROM THE REST, AND A FLOOR FILLER LIKE NO OTHER?
I’d say that my presence and the overall 'show' that I bring is much more energised and entertaining than anyone else I’ve seen. My music is always fun with happy undertones, and I just love to see people smiling.
HAVE YOU GOT A DISASTER DJ SET THAT’S SO FUNNY YOU’RE ALMOST PROUD OF IT?
I have played at one venue about four times, and it’s gone extremely well every time so much so that they actually built me a crazy stage for the last time. However, the crowd..it was really different, and they absolutely hated me. They kept asking me for Reggaetón over and over and over until I had to have security block people from coming up to me.. LOL.
WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST CLUBBING EXPERIENCE LIKE?
One of my funniest first club experiences was in Australia where I had just become friends with the owner and ended up partying in the back room for a couple days… Lost my passport… It was a good beginning!
YOU’VE TRAVELLED EVERYWHERE – WHAT ARE THE BEST PLACES YOU’VE VISITED AND WHY?
One of my all-time favorite places near and dear to my heart will always be Indonesia. I’ve been going there for years and the magical vibes it gives off is just unexplainable. Another new spot that I have found is Mexico City. I literally feel so alive - I highly recommend going.
IF YOU COULD DJ ANYWHERE, WHERE WOULD IT BE?
Absolutely without fail Greece! I have always wanted to go since I was a little girl but I’ve never quite made it out there. I’m planning on going this year in the middle of summer, and I can’t wait - any recommendations are welcome...LOL!


BEST AND FUNNIEST FESTIVAL MEMORIES?
There’s literally so many I can’t even begin to explain. I’ve been hitting festivals for far over 10 years… Use your imagination, I promise you it’s happened to me!
LIFE MUST BE BEAUTIFULLY MANIC AND FULL ON – BUT WHAT DOES SAM BLACKY LIKE TO DO ON A DAY OFF?
NOTHING!!!!! I SLEEP AND ORDER POSTMATES AND BINGE WATCH TV. AND SLEEP. THEN MORE SLEEP.
DESCRIBE SUPERDRY IN THREE WORDS.
PUNK ROCK LIFE.
