Rising Dublin DJ sensation Jazzy delivered a medley of infectiously energetic dance tracks as the second act on the Heineken Stage at the Longitude Festival today. The DJ made the most of the large crowds, hitting the stage in blistering style.
Fans pile excitedly to the Heineken Stage as Jazzy starts her highly-anticipated set. In many ways, Jazzy is the ideal candidate to kick off the highly-anticipated Longitude weekend festivities.
The Dublin-based DJ newcomer is the second to play the Heineken Stage, and shortly after emerging has already got the incoming crowd's full attention.
Interacting effortlessly with the crowd, Jazzy is at home on the stage. Her vocals and DJ skills are only ever improving, with an expressive edge becoming increasingly prevalent in her performances. After already garnering worldwide acclaim and critical success with recent tracks 'Make Me Feel Good' and 'Don't Stop Just Yet', the humble Irish talent is on a rapid course for stardom.
Stepping up to her decks on centre stage, Jazzy has drawn in a dedicated fanbase ready to worship her performance. The DJ is kitted out in appropriately jazzy festival wear, with a colourful bodysuit and pink fuzzy bucket hat perfectly matching the energy of her upcoming set. Launching straight into some intense techno beats, the DJ offers Dublin a pacy and infectiously energetic show from a DJ clearly loving her time on stage.

Blending the club hits that made her name with emotive, slower songs, it’s clear the artist has an exciting future ahead. A particular highlight is a remix of Estelle's 'American Boy', where Kanye West's iconic lines are turned into a club classic with heavy, hypnotic beats throughout.
The DJ's energy is hypnotic, with Jazzy regularly taking short breaks from the decks to jump and throw her hands up alongside the crowd. As she keeps the music coming, balloons emerge from the crowd, and hypnotic, kaleidoscopic shapes are thrown up on the screens behind her, keeping the crowd visually enticed while the techno tracks fill their ears.
Finishing with her recent hit 'Giving Me', currently sitting at a comfortable 32 million Spotify streams since its release in March, Jazzy removed her headphones and stepped away from the decks to give the crowd a taste of her singing talents.
To Jazzy's surprise, the entire Longitude crowd joined the talent in singing along word for word. The chorus from the crowd was no surprise to anyone else, the song is a certified catchy hit. Passionately joining Jazzy to sing from all sides of the tent "you got me feeling good, won't you come on, baby", the line could have been directed at Jazzy - everyone in attendance was feeling good after the song.

Jazzy could certainly leave the stage knowing that she had done everything she needed to, ensuring that fans left the early performance feeling nothing but elated. With a Belters Only gig on the main stage soon, Jazzy is only getting started at Longitude.
No crowd has moved so energetically for an all-too-early gig at the Heineken Stage, and Jazzy, the conductor of it all, has arrived as a true star.
