gallagher.

Based in Cape Town, Gallagher is a selector whose sets are defined by depth and groove. House music forms the foundation of his sound, but his sets often reflect a broader palette, drawing influence from the raw soul & classic sounds of US house, particularly of Chicago and Detroit, to leftfield rhythms and heavier late-night sounds.

Formerly hosted a long-running club night at The Waiting Room, where he held a four-year residency with The Secret Society. During this period, he helped define the night’s sound, rooted in house and influenced by disco, which in turn, he grew and discovered the Cape Town scene. He is currently the co-curator of Four Four, Goshica & Exercise, projects that are driven by house and late-night sounds while spotlighting local talent in South Africa.

He has performed at a host of venues and festivals over the years, including Modular, One Park, Torte Bar, All My Friends, Evol, ColorBox Studios, Apollo Warehouse, The Ally, Wonderland, Reset, and The Waiting Room, as well as on lineups for Xylem, Just Between Us, Killer Robot, Hungry4, CTEMF, Pangea, Future Frequency, Bazique Festival, and Wolfkop Weekender. Featuring alongside Stojche, Zisko, Marcus Worgull, Axel Bowman, and Ralph Lawson.

His sets are driven by connection and curiosity. A deep love for the culture that surrounds the music.
