We return Saturday December 19th for more YDNY shenanigans @thecarltonclub with our crackin YDNY with friends Christmas Party. Joining Rob & Neil on the night will be return guests and good friends AKA Jackie & Just Kiri.

AKAJackie has built a stellar reputation on the Manchester scene having played for some of the city's finest parties including Homoelectric, Homobloc Presents, Supernature Disco, Club Solo, Sticky Heat, YDNY and DeRanged Nights amongst others. Appearing on line ups with big hitters such as Luke Una, DJ Paulette and Colleen Cosmo Murphy, he has brought his vibes to top venues including Hidden, The Refuge, Rainy Heart, Renae, Joshua Brooks, Ramona, Carlton Club, Piccadilly Central.

He is a resident for the Manchester night "Silly Little Disco" and can also be seen having adventures with BB & Richie V as "SuperJackie". He has also played further afield at 110 above festival, Not a Cult festival, 24 Kitchen St in Liverpool and Sheaf St in Leeds. In 2025 he was a resident DJ at Lost Village festival, and was invited back to play again in 2026.

He stands out with his unique blend of a multitude of genres. Rooted in house and always in the groove- expect thick bass lines, piano slammers, soulful vocals, left-field disco, acid, electro, italo and classic disco and house.

When he isn't behind the decks AKAJackie plays the clarinet full time in the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.

Just Kiri has been setting the disco world alight down at the Pen & Pencil playing for the Midnight Riot posse. Just Kiri is a reet proper Yorkshire lass who's heart was stolen by Manchester. Kiri is convinced her heart is a disco ball. Her love and passion for all things disco and house and for sharing it with others has led her to the centre of the Manchester scene. Expect upbeat and high energy from both the tracks she plays and her as she dances along. The one you wont be saying after her set is.... "I wish she'd played more lyrics!!!"
