DJ Toni Tanzbei

Socalled
Journalist, photographer, filmmaker, magician, cartoonist and puppet maker based in Montreal, Quebec. He has lectured and has led master classes in music festivals around the world, from Moscow to Paris, from London to LA, and from Krakow to San Francisco, and has performed on every continent. With 5 solo albums to his name, he has performed all over the world for more than 10 years, and his list of collaborators knows no generational, social, cultural nor religious boundaries. He has played with, featured, recorded and arranged for Gonzales, Fred Wesley, Boban Markovic, the Mighty Sparrow, Lhasa, Roxanne Shante, Irving Fields, Killah Priest, Matisyahu, Theodore Bikel, Enrico Macias, Derrick Carter… Socalled is always busy with projects, so much so that he was the subject of The Socalled Movie, a 2010 feature documentary produced by the National Film Board of Canada.

Finally, in 2015, he returns with another collection of songs: Peoplewatching, an offering of infectiously fun, passionate and timeless mini-odes for the booty pleasure of all Twenty-Teens, reaffirming the splendor of people watching in an attempt to understand each other and form a collectivity in a festive fullness – and you’re part of it!
