A talented club DJ, Annie gets booked regularly to play the UKs most credible clubs. Annie has just completed her annual DJ tour 'Annie Mac Presents…' which she has hosted for 3 years running. Annie personally chooses the line-up of DJs for her tour, both established and up-and-coming to play in her favourite clubs across the UK. Annie has been a DJ at tons of festivals, plus she has regular dates in Ibiza and around the world.
Born and bred in Dublin to a family immersed in musicality, Annie left home at 17 to attend Queens University in Belfast, where she was bitten by the clubbing bug after visiting the city’s legendary Shine club nights. Inspired to purchase her first set of decks, Annie taught herself to mix using old funk and soul records bought from local charity shops. Following a stint as part of Shine’s marketing team and four months living in Manhattan, Annie made the move to London, working simultaneously as a TV & Radio plugger, a freelance Broadcasting Assistant and a presenter for the SBN, before she approached Radio 1. Initially employed as a BA, her natural flair got her noticed by management and she was soon standing in for Mary Anne Hobbs.
Her TV work has seen Annie contribute regularly to BBC2's The Culture show, reviewing new music releases. She has also done work for MTV2 presenting 'Gonzo'. In October 2007 Annie helped launch BBC Switch, the BBC's offering for 12-16 year olds. It was announced that Annie would front Switch, a brand new Sunday night Radio 1 show, and co-host a new weekly music TV show 'Sound' alongside Nick Grimshaw on BBCTWO every Saturday afternoon.
