Seattle-based DJ Joey Webb has been bringing his charismatic energy to the turntables as a steady sound selector behind a wide variety of house, funk, and soul nights. Gaining wisdom and a deep collection holding down parties in previous home bases of New York, Texas, and California, Joey is currently active throwing the recurring JIVE party at Substation in Ballard as well as providing support on a multitude of Seattle house and funk nights. His exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World forgoes his usual party-starting vibes for a warm, earthy, organic set that beautifully showcases dusty underground gems that span soul, R&B, lo-fi funk, indie rock, laid-back boogie, and more in a breezy, free-flowing fashion.
