Tam’s DJing journey started like all long journeys with one small step, that being a slot at the local youth club in Moffat in 1974. playing mostly Northern Soul & Motown, A move back to his home town of Dumfries in 1978 found Tam working in the local independent record shop, which also had the mobile disco business tied up in the town. Tam quickly progressed from the mobile discos into the clubs that the shop also serviced with DJ’s, now Tam could start playing less commercial music and slip in the odd house and soul track into his sets. In the late eighties Tam steered himself to becoming more involved with the rave/dance culture, which was kicking off big time in Scotland.

Tam quickly progressed from the mobile discos into the clubs that the shop also serviced with DJ’s, now Tam could start playing less commercial music and slip in the odd house and soul track into his sets. In the late eighties Tam steered himself to becoming more involved with the rave/dance culture, which was kicking off big time in Scotland. Tam and his friends would organise and DJ at secret parties in very remote areas in the countryside, in true underground party fashion. As Tam grew older, so it was that his musical taste blossomed and matured into the more soulful side of House music. In 2003 Tam was away from home periodically due to work commitments and the DJing took a reluctant back seat in Tam’s life. After that long and compulsory hiatus, five years ago Tam was freed up from the shackles of his job & back in the game. He was attending EVERY Dumfries Soul night and the DJing flame was ignited once again, sparks turn into flames to coin a classic Soul record and Tam has not looked back since. A Soul boy at heart, Tam is now one of the most active Dj's on the Scottish Soul scene, both as a promoter/DJ but also as a “punter”. There is not a Soul or Soulful House event in the North and Scotland that Tam appears to not of attended and he is a SSW die hard, Tam has played at ssw4 & ssw5, & ssw7, was also invited over to play in Hamburg at the Groovefinder’s party in June this year, Tam is now one of the most sought after soul dj’s on the scene as he can play all genres of soul from the early 60’s soul to motown, northern soul & philly soul as well as modern soul disco & funk and also all the soulful house genres of the present day, if you need to check out Tam’s mixes, remixes & edits then check out his hearthis page at https://hearthis.at/qclbqzb3/ or his mixcloud page at www.mixcloud.com/djteebee/ Djteebee. a.k.a.
