Festival favourite and Radio 1 DJ Jordan Suckley returns to Wickerman this month, where he'll be joining the likes of Steve Lawler, Darren Emerson and in the festival's ever popular Bass Camp Arena. 

We caught up with him for a quick chat ahead of the event. 

Hi Jordan, thanks for talking to us. You will be joining the ‘Bass Camp’ at The Wickerman Festival again this year. Do you enjoy playing in Scotland? If so, why?

Yeah I absolutely love playing in Scotland because they really go for it! In some places I play the clubbers are more reserved, but in Scotland there is no holding back!

You’re in good company on your stage, is there anyone that you are looking forward to seeing in particular?

I will be getting to event early and having a good look around, so I will try and check out as many acts as possible. I am a big fan of the Plump DJs, so will be checking those for sure!

How’s life at Radio 1 as a resident on the ‘In New DJs We Trust’ show?

The last few months have been so surreal, I love doing the show and have met some great people at the BBC radio studios. Also I am just happy we still have trance on national radio!

What’s your top tip for surviving a UK festival?

Nurofen.

What’s in the pipeline for the rest of the summer for you?

This summer is the busiest I have ever been. I just got back from Argentina last week, it was insane! Also I’m off to Judgement Sundays in September, also Australia, Bali, Poland, Sweden, Creamfields, Global Gathering, USA , Greece and loads of other places.

Thanks Jordan, see you at Wickerman!

Catch Jordan Suckley on Friday at Wickerman, in the Skiddle.com Arena as part of the festival's Bass Camp.
