This is a limited capacity event. Grab your tickets early! Rick Preston...the Legend...One of the founders of the SF scene:
Although Bay Area DJ Rick Preston started off his career playing disco and funk in the early 80’s, he used his experience in the booming 80’s alternative scene to hone his DJing skills. Rick would be part of various gatherings in bars and night clubs, leading their nights with swooning tunes and industrial beats. And as the music progressed, so would his attraction to what would lead to an even bigger movement, House Music.
In the early 90’s, Rick became involved with promotion alongside his frequent DJ gigs. Rick was helping put on club nights and raves in their beginning stages, when the underground was at its strongest.
Rick has performed at many of the Bay Area’s most prominent events, like The Gathering, Stompy, Salted, Groove Kitchen, Boogie Buffet, Cool World, 2nd Sunday, Spundae, etc. His residencies have included clubs like San Jose’s F/X, Cardiff Lounge, The Oasis, Ajax, The Usual, and San Francisco’s 1015 Folsom, The EndUp, DV8, and DNA Lounge among many others in and out of the Bay Area.
While his DJ sets are mostly considered deep and funky, Rick enjoys taking the crowd on “the journey” in his sets. Rick has a special flair for bringing together a multitude of genres which can include soulful vocals, disco, tribal rhythms, tech-house, acid house, a classic track or two, or even a mind awakening spoken word.
