Hailing originally from Blackburn, Grant’s early teenage years luckily coincided with the height of the illegal Blackburn Warehouse Parties, and this is where his love of house music was forged.

Originally becoming friends and DJ partner in crime with Phil Rose back in 1998 when Grant was playing at his long term weekly residency at 'Federation' a now legendary mid - late 90's House night at 'The Main Entrance' nightclub in Blackpool. After Federation sadly closed its doors for the final time after a sell-out millenniums NYE event, the DJ's behind Federation went on to host a new night 'Play' which was hosted at various venues around Greater Manchester including Phillips Park Hall and J2 Bolton during the 00’s
During the 90's Grant was a regular on the Midlands house music scene playing various guest spots at some or Birmingham’s biggest nights such as 'Crunch' (The Venue) and 'S.L.A.G' (Steering Wheel).
