She Can DJ – America
pres. by CBS Radio and Astralwerks
‘She Can DJ’ is a nationwide talent search to find America’s top female DJ/Producer. The success of similar ventures in Australia and throughout Europe has led to the concept being launched in America this summer.
CBS Radio stations will hold local events in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Houston, Boston, Detroit, Phoenix, San Diego, Charlotte, Las Vegas and one wild card market. Then 12 semi-finalists will compete for a prize that includes a recording contract with Astralwerks and a headlining tour spot in the above-mentioned markets.
“Aspiring female DJs/producers need look no further… for that once in a lifetime chance… As the contest plays out across our considerable platform of contemporary hit radio stations, participants will be front and center with millions of music fans and the top decision makers in the business. CBS RADIO is thrilled to be part of the electronic dance music movement that has been playing out to much success on radio stations all over the United States.”

“She Can DJ – America” is backed up by Astralwerks; a label that as brought the world’s top dance music talent to America for over 20 years. The team has backed top acts like Fatboy Slim, David Guetta, Hot Chip, Swedish House Mafia and The Chemical Brothers; all of of whom will play an integral role in the selection process.
“Seeing how successful ‘She Can DJ’ was in discovering top female DJ/producers in overseas markets it’s the perfect time to launch stateside… The Unites States is the hottest place on earth for dance music right now but the industry is largely male dominated. We’re thrilled to be a part of a program that will help discover and develop top female talent in the dance music space.”
– Glenn Medlinger, GM Astralwerks
