A few weeks ago I got to hang out with Shay De Castro when she came to town to perform at Cafe Racer! Shay is an established techno DJ who lived in Seattle after leaving her hometown of Boise post high school graduation. Since then, Shay has traveled the world through her music performing for audiences across Europe, North and Central America.

Originally from Boise, Shay found her way to music after picking up the drums at age 4. By Age 10 she taught herself guitar and quickly found her way to techno after getting into gauge music! Shay claims there is a natural pipe-line from grunge to techno! Shay has an incredible future ahead of her and has already achieved so much, most recently announcing a release through Mau5trap after performing at Beyond Wonderland.

Shay had so much to share from living abroad in Mexico, to her success as a DJ and how she has grown to be such a kind, introspective, loving person. Follow Shay De Castro on instagram and listen to her latest releases on Spotify.
