Scots DJ Hannah Laing quits day job to focus on music after amazing year and epic gigs

Scots DJ Hannah Laing has been going from strength to strength all year from gigs at TRNSMT and Creamfields and is now taking the plunge to focus on music full-time.

Hannah, 28, is a rising star in the music scene and has performed alongside Hollywood A-lister Idris Elba during his sets in Ibiza. The Dundee-based DJ had been working full time as a dental nurse as well as continuing her impressive stint in the party island all summer, but has now quit her job to focus solely on music.

Speaking to the Daily Record, Hannah said: “It’s obviously something I’ve always wanted to do music full time but more recently as things have blown up more. I was touring in the summer and I was DJing in Ibiza at the weekends and straight back into work on the Monday, so it’s been difficult. I think things were just getting too much so I knew it was the right time to leave.
