LOUIS ROSS
Louis Ross is a 24 year old producer and DJ from Tauranga, New Zealand. Louis gets his musical talents from his mother, who used to be an opera singer and his father, who taught him
how to play the guitar at just 7 years old. At 18, Louis began DJing and a few years later he stepped into the world of producing. As he continues to grow and develop as a DJ, writer,
producer and singer, Louis is constantly expanding the genres that he explores, bringing into his
music hints of House, Tropical House, Hip-Hop/RnB and DnB, as well as his own singing and instrumental talents as a guitar and drum player.
