Dancing Mandy digs deep into her extensive knowledge of electronic music past and present, weaving dirty house and funky tech with melodic elements to bring joy, depth, and sass that moves your ass.
“She can’t imagine doing anything else... Lord knows she’s tried...”
House music has been the soul and savior for Amanda since her college days. Much of that time was spent DJing and producing through the cracks of her “normal” life at community events and in her living room. But in the last few years, she’s realized it’s more than that — sharing the music she loves with the world is her calling.
Since that realization and shifting her career to include more full-time DJing, her popularity has exploded seemingly out of nowhere onto the San Francisco house music scene. In actuality it has been a 20-year journey, and her technical skills and impeccable music selection speaks to her deep tribal knowledge that only experience can manifest.
Dancing Mandy digs deep into her extensive knowledge of electronic music past and present, weaving dirty house and funky tech with melodic elements to bring joy, depth, and sass that moves the ass. Her fans follow her from event to event not just for her musical selections, but to share in the kinship she creates when she’s behind the decks. She doesn’t play music for the crowd, she experiences the journey with the crowd — she knows what it feels like to be healed by music and genuine human connection.
A member of the Airpusher Collective, you can catch her at many Burning Man events and house music establishments in San Francisco, Oakland, and Santa Cruz — including Halcyon, the Midway, Public Works, Monarch, and underground warehouses.
