Peter James (Peter Kelly) is a Toronto-based DJ, dancer, event producer, and cultural worker whose work lives at the intersection of house music, movement, and club culture. Rooted in house dance and informed by hustle, waacking/whacking/punking, jazz, and tap, alongside nearly a decade as a company dancer with Toronto Dance Theatre, his artistic voice has been shaped as much by the stage as by countless nights immersed in clubs, cyphers, battles, and social dance floors. Throughout his career, he has shared the stage with artists including David Morales, Barbara Tucker, Horse Meat Disco, The Shapeshifters, Tanzer, Madam Lola, La Santa, Jellyfish, Maya Margarita, and Toronto’s The Patchouli Brothers, experiences that continue to inform his instinct for energy, rhythm, musicality, and connection behind the decks. Everything Peter creates is a reflection of that journey, one that values joy, groove, community, and the freedom to lose yourself in the music. Rooted in vocal, soulful, deep, Afro, gospel, and disco house, his sets are built for bodies in motion, creating spaces where music, movement, and people come together. Alongside his work as a DJ and dancer, Peter is also a producer and cultural worker, creating events, fostering community, and supporting artists and live performance across theatre, dance, and club culture. Whether behind the decks, on stage, or in the crowd, he believes the dance floor remains one of the most powerful places to build connection, joy, and belonging.
