Ruby's New Year's Eve Party

Ruby's, Whaley Bridge is proud to announce a stellar lineup for this year's NYE! Two Haçienda legends come to Whaley Bridge for a New Year's Eve celebration not to be missed - Jon Dasilva and Dave Haslam with DJ support from DJ Shifty

Dave Haslam

Dave Haslam built his reputation DJing almost five hundred times at the Haçienda club in Manchester from the mid-1980s onwards and cemented it at his legendary ‘Yellow’ night at the Boardwalk. Justin Robertson, Laurent Garnier, and the Chemical Brothers all later credited his sets as an inspiration. He’s gone on to play gigs around the world, from Lima and Detroit to Creamfields, Silencio Paris and Panorama Bar Berlin; including afterparties for New Order, Gorillaz, and more. Expect a joyful, eclectic, quality selection.

Jon Dasilva

With a career spanning four decades, which began in what many consider to be the birthplace of the British House and Techno music scene and the UK’s music mecca, Fac 51 The Hacienda,few DJs can boast a pedigree like Jon Dasilva, who was recently voted in at #25 in Iconic Magazine reader’s poll of All Time Top 50 DJs.

And in the words of Sasha, who regarded Jon as his mentor: ‘Well Jon to me was the most influential DJ in my career really. He showed me the way. Not only did he give me my first breaks he taught me how to build DJ sets. I used to go and watch him play from 9 pm and follow the whole night, listening to the way he crafted his DJ sets... his use of a cappelas and sound effects was just mind-blowing. He was so ahead of the game. I don’t think there’s another more influential person on my DJing career, really.’
