Keeping the weekend going with another female DJ from Dallas, DJ Kenzi Sway
Kenzie Julia Suarez, now known as KenziSway, is a American edm producer, dj, and live remixer. Her skyrocketing music career began in 2016 after graduating with a BSN (Bachelors of Science in Nursing).
From her freshman year Up until her last semester in college, Kenzie was a collegiate and NCA competitive cheerleader for Oklahoma City University. Her dare-devil mindset and passion for performing led her to receiving 3 national championships at NCA, the super bowl of cheerleading.
Kenzie moved back to Dallas Tx at the end of 2016 to finally put her life long plans of being a nurse into action.
But something didn't feel right she says. "I worked my whole life to be a nurse. But came to the realization that didn't want to spend the rest of my life as one." Kenzie went from having a structured school schedule and strict athletic training with optimism and certainty towards her future to a life that consisted of long bartending shifts in popular Dallas bars and going into job interviews pessimistic about the outcome.
Longing to become passionate for something that gave her the same joy cheerleading did, she picked up a small 2 channel controller to occupy her mind.
"The Dj at the club I worked at constantly played the same playlist every night but it was the only thing I looked forward to at that point in my life," she said, "I didn't want to be a dj at that time, I just wanted to invest my time into something I enjoyed. It was a hobby that soon became an addiction and it was uncontrollable."
Afraid of what her family and other djs in the clubs would think of her change in career path, she kept her favorite thing to do a secret, but not for long.
Her debuit as a DJ came unexpectedly at a local bar she worked at that had a DJ bail last minute. 100% self-taught, KenziSway has developed her own style of making music, a style that is catching the attention of people of all ages.
Performing for Modern Luxury Magazine, Lizard Lounge Candleroom, etc. at such an early stage in her music career sets the tone for something unimaginable in the near future
