24-7 party boy EMOH INSTEAD (aka Chris Emerson) of legendary Australian dance duo WHAT SO NOT has a big 2 weeks of shows coming up including a bunch of his own headline shows and back-to-back NYE / NYD festival slots on opposite sides of the country.

Whether he's partying in his home town of Sydney or dropping in for the occasional set at our CANT SAY Melbourne club, Chris has a style that strikes a hard balance between pristine technical prowess and unparalleled track selection.
