Rollestxn Ave is the brainchild of two of Christchurch’s most exciting young DJs, Jim Gibbs and Harrison Lund.

After two incredible nights at Sin After Dark, they have exploded onto the scene with their multi-genre style which sets them apart from the competition. Jim got into DJing 4 years ago after being inspired by the massive European festivals such as Tomorrowland. Combining the many sounds of Europe like Trance, House, and Hardstyle with the classic tracks that everyone knows is what Jim does best which means that his sets are always wild and unpredictable. Harrison Lund is the life of the party. If he’s not behind the decks he’s at the front of the crowd going as hard as anyone else. Harrison only started DJing at the start of 2021 and has already reached a skill level that takes most years to achieve. Bringing the mayhem of Drum and Bassand an uncanny ability to create unorthodox mashups, his skills complement Jim’s perfectly creating an incredible duo that will always blow the roof off.
