Unlike many weird and wonderful names in music, this one couldn’t be more descriptive if it led a revolution. Never one for conforming, following or holding back, Jonny ‘Rebel’ Lawrence's passion for music can be heard throughout his work as well as in his personality.

Hailing from the historically conservative Buckinghamshire, it’s not hard to see where the thirst to step away from the norm came from. After realising his passion for music and all things artistic at a young age, Jonny had found the ammunition he needed to flourish from a wayward boy to a rebellious leader.

Noting influences spanning across 80s pop culture and the 90s dance music scene, plus what close friends describe as ‘an unhealthy obsession with hero Sasha’ - you can see where Rebel pulls direction from.

Many a DJ begin at a very young age, this is true… though legend has it that a zero-aged unborn Jonny Rebel would keep his neighbours awake all night by kicking his mother’s stomach to the rhythm of a 4/4 120bpm kick drum.

2013 is set to be a big year for Rebel with his ever evolving sound attracting attention from right across the globe.

Expect the unexpected, weirdness, grooves, soul and passion with every set and every release.
