Oakland
A staple in the Bay Area for years, lady DJ Zita has been steadily building a DJ queendom beat by beat. Known as a party rocker, classic record provider, tireless promoter and meticulous organizer, Zita has brought her sisterhood sounds to dancefloors on both coasts and overseas since 1999. At first one of only a handful of women on the scene, Zita established Bay Area Sistah Sound (BASS) to unite women DJs and performers. She can also be found most weekends holding down residencies in San Francisco and Oakland as part of DJ duo Golden Soundscapes with partner Dmadness, as well as producing fresh events spotlighting women in hip hop and guesting at many premier music nights and venues. During the day, she is a secondary English teacher who is currently seeking her M.A. in TESOL at SFSU. She has over 10 years of experience training and performing in various forms of dance, including modern, hip-hop, African Haitian, and ballet. She joined Malia Movement Company in 2010.
