Mister Vershawn
Hailing from Philadelphia, PA, Mister Vershawn is a Producer and DJ who’s style is distinctly upbeat, fusing thunderous thumping rhythms with lush, feel-good melodies.
To date he’s put out two EP’s, a host of singles and most recently his debut album “Sage”, that sold over 10 thousand copies in it’s first week. The nine track epic piece of art is a futuristic thrill ride through the spellbinding world of popular dance music. The “Sage”album comes just a year after his first two EP’s, which started the buzz that put him in on list as one of the top 50 emerging artist in the genre. His classical training and background as a piano player, allows him to bring a musicality to his DJ’ing that is unmatched across the industry today. The anthemic songs that he crafts, blur the lines between a furious flurry of genres from house and afrobeat, all the way to world and dance music, with just a light sprinkle of that raw Philly soul.
