A Farsley woman who played her first public DJ set just a year ago has landed a dream gig in London after being selected to perform alongside Bradford-based TikTok star and DJ, Crazy Auntie Ann.
Caroline Joynson was chosen from thousands of entries submitted from around the world to DJ at an exclusive event hosted by Crazy Auntie Ann at Colours Hoxton, London, on Saturday, 4 July.
PR consultant Caroline, who performs under the name Queen of Spin, only began learning to DJ in February last year.
Since then, she has rapidly built her confidence and experience, progressing quickly from her first public performance in June 2025 to playing in front of more than 2,000 people at Yeadon Cricket Club’s Bonfire Night celebrations. She’s gone on to play at sober raves, corporate events and bars and is set to take to the decks at The End Bar in Leeds on Friday 26 June for its popular Moretti Club night.
Ann Chambers, known online as Crazy Auntie Ann, began her journey to becoming a social media sensation during the 2020 lockdown. Originally creating videos to inspire and entertain the health and social care students she taught at a local college, she was challenged by her students to reach 10,000 followers on TikTok. Fast-forward five years, and she now boasts an audience of 4.8 million followers across social media.
Caroline Joynson said: “I’ve always loved clubbing and the sense of togetherness as the DJ brings everyone together through music. Fast forward a few years and, completely by chance, my neighbour offered me my first DJ lesson – and I’ve never looked back.
“I joined a DJ course at The Music Box in Pudsey last year and things have grown from there. From my first public gig this time last year to DJing in front of 2,000 people at Yeadon Cricket Club’s Bonfire Night event, I’ve grabbed every opportunity that has come my way and I’m absolutely loving it.
“To have the opportunity to DJ in London is a dream come true. I know it’s going to be an incredible event, and I’ll have a brilliant time with Crazy Auntie Ann. I just keep saying yes to opportunities, and that’s what I’d say to anyone thinking about learning a new skill – go for it. What have you got to lose?”
Ann Chambers, Crazy Auntie Ann, said: “We absolutely loved Caroline’s entry for the chance to DJ with me in London. You could see the joy shining through in the video she submitted.
“We received thousands of entries, but the DJs we selected all had something special about them. I know they’ll connect with the crowd at the event.”
Joining Caroline behind the decks at the London event will be DJ Ty from Pudsey and DJ Je Moeder from The Netherlands.
The Crazy Auntie Ann & Friends event takes place from 2pm to 6pm at Colours Hoxton, London, on Saturday, 4 July. Tickets are available here.
