Last 3 Digits aka Wez Priceless, has been DJing around the North West of England since 2002 when, at the tender age of 16 got his 1st residency at local Wigan Nightclub the “Mirage”. Jumping around local clubs for a few years earning no money, with no contacts to give him his big break or guide him to success, it seemed an almost impossible task for him to get anywhere!! But after building up his profile around the NW over the course of the next few years, Wez began to pick up a few residencies at places such as 51st State, The Park Nightclub, RSVP, the infamous Havana nightclub and The Kingsway.
In 2007 Wez went over to Ayia Napa, on his own with only a 2 week holiday, no work lined up and only a handful of demos to show any promises. Wez successfully picked up a residency at Bagley's Club on only his 3rd night of being on the island; this led him to Aruba Bar and played at the notorious Club Ice for nights such as Hed Kandi, Defected, Lisa Lashes and Europe’s largest foam party in front of crowds of 1800 plus. Whilst over there, Wez was also an 'Island reporter' for 97.4 Rock FM and Floorfillers, on Mark Freejacks show where he did a weekly report on the islands hot gossip and top club nights over June, July and August.
Following from his trip to Ayia Napa Wez started to gain a very impressive portfolio from DJing all over the North West and has been resident at some of Manchester’s top venues such as Sankeys, Area 51 and Club V. He also played at many local underground nights over 2008 and 2009 such as Revive, Bad Influence, Filth, Electric Boutique and Phunk to name a few. Aside from the DJing Wez had had small hand on the production side but never felt he got the most out of teaching himself. So in the summer of 2009 Wez enrolled at the School of Audio Engineering in Liverpool where he attended and had to pay for out of his own pocket, a 6 month course on Dance Music production (EMP course).
In 2010 Wez decided to take his career to the next level and become a full time producer and DJ; concentrating on pushing the brand forward which was created the previous year. In the summer, Show Me Luv was given the main Friday night slot on Rock FMs Boom Radio and Wez was also taken on as Mark Freejacks producer on his Sunday evening show ‘Classic Cuts’ on 97.4 Rock FM. Under his production guise Last 3 Digits and Domino Effect, Wez has had his remixes played and supported by the likes of Radio City’s Lee Butler and Steve Cocky, Ministry of Sounds Nilesh Parmar, AATW Records Christian Davies, BCM / N Trance DJ Khuta, Kiss FMs Steve Smart and not forgetting 3beat Records Liam Keegan.
Now for 2012 Wez & Showmeluv are coming to their biggest year to date as SML has taken on several large venues for its night including J2 in Bolton, Coco in Blackpool, Level 1 in Accrington and GCHQ in Bury. Along with this Wez has interviewed the likes of Sidney Samson, DJ Fresh, Gareth Wyn, Vato Gonzalez, DJ R3hab to name a few.
