10 iconic DJ Harvey moments
Dance music's last rock 'n' roll star
Taking a 10-year vacation in the United States post 9/11
DJ Harvey was a much-respected DJ before he left for the US in 2001 having come up through the TONKA parties and landing a residency at Ministry Of Sound. But his American sojourn really added that mystery that is indicative of any rock star character. Having purchased tickets at all-time low prices following the 9/11 attacks, Harvey skipped town, set up shop in California and ended up staying for a decade because of visa issues. Thankfully he used that time wisely, setting fire to a stagnant West Coast dance music scene with some legendary parties.
