CLIFF NOTES:

BEST KEPT SECRET: I was born in Alaska and damn proud of it!  Sorry I don't know Governor Palin.

CRAZIEST PARTY FOUL YOU'VE SEEN: I don't recall anyone else's party fouls because I was probably drunk myself and don't remember (that's probably a party foul in itself).  I did drop a martini at a certain celebrities house.  I was so embarrassed since I was pool side and the glass shattered loudly.  I'm sure I won't be invited back.

FAVORITE DJ: DJ Peter Parker.  He's incredible to watch and he mixes music that makes you say whoa.

FAVORITE NYC HAUNT: I'm a margarita connoisseur so any place that makes a good one; Cowgirl Hall Of Fame, Tortilla Flats and Dos Caminos Soho.

WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU SPINNING: I'm a resident DJ at "Tuesday at QBar GRRLZ Nights" in San Francisco.  I'll be featured at the 7x7 Hot 20 Party at the W Hotel in San Francisco on October 8th and on the Sweet Caribbean Cruise in November 2009.

Womanizer Remix

Singer/songwriter & DJ Brad Walsh's music has garnered glowing praise from many influential talent spotters, including uber blogger Perez Hilton, who says: “One of our favorite new artists is the incredibly talented Brad Walsh, whose music has the pulsing vitality that Madonna's early work possessed”.

Brad's 2008 remix of Britney Spears' "Womanizer" was downloaded over 2 million times from his website, with music blogger ArjanWrites calling Brad "a chameleon extraordinaire who has his finger tight on the pulse of what's hot and happening ... with Brad on her side, Britney Spears pumps up her street cred."

CLIFFS NOTES:

BEST KEPT SECRET: I have seven fingers on one hand and two on the other.

CRAZIEST PARTY FOUL YOU'VE SEEN: Actually I dropped a drink on a girl while going through the crowd at Tori Spelling's book party the other night and then escaped to the VIP where she couldn't follow and yell at me. That was pretty foul.

FAVORITE DJ: Josh Madden.

FAVORITE NYC HAUNT: We don't go out drinking, so my haunts are all food-related. My favorite restaurant is Soy & Sake on 7th Ave South, and Lula's on E. 6th Street is a small ice cream shop with the BEST vegan ice cream on the planet.

WHERE CAN WE FIND YOU SPINNING: I haven't DJed in a while since I'm spending my time recording and putting together my next album!

DESCRIBE YOUR SOUND: The new stuff is very pop and darker electro/dancey. Kind of the lovechild of The Presets and GaGa.
