~~~DJ Cilegna~~~
Dallas, Texas
Born in Nenagh, North Tipperary, Ireland, I moved to the United States in 2005. I have always had an interest in music, more specifically Trance. [I'd have to say Paul van Dyk and Tiesto are my inspiration for writing and performing.] I attended college at TCU, where I earned my BS in Music Theory [I recommend it for any aspiring musician!].
Shortly after, I put my skills to work, and hit the night scene in Dallas. After a few years, I released my first 4-song EP entitled "Rhythms of Life". As things in Dallas started to slow, my brother [who lived in Houston] recommended I book a few gigs there. With many copies of my EP in hand, I drove to Houston and started booking gigs there. It went pretty well!
To make a long story short, after about 5 months on the club scene in Houston, things back in Dallas started to look promising again. I live permanently in Dallas, and keep quite busy doing gigs in between the two cities. I am currently in the process of branching out to the rest of the Metroplex [focused mostly in Fort Worth], and just finished mastering my second EP, "Changes", which will include my fan favorite "Iridescence". [It's practically a full-length with 8 songs on it.]
I'll be posting dates soon and hope you can catch one of my shows and grab a CD [or 2!] Being new to the whole Social Media scene, I'm still linking some samples of my work to this page, so look for them soon!
