Biography

Early life and career beginnings

Zowie was born in Chatham, Kent.[3] He has stated that he was named after David Bowie, as his father was a huge fan, and was once called "David Zowie Ziggy Stardust Aladdin Sane Thin White Duke Twig The Wonder Kid" before his mother changed his name by deed poll.[4] Zowie started producing music at age 12, when he bought a pair of wooden decks and then SoundLabs, commencing production when he was 14. Two years later he bought a pair of Technics SL-1200 from a club he was playing at.[5] He has also operated using an Atari ST.[6]

2015–present: breakthrough

Zowie is best known for his 2015 song "House Every Weekend", which topped the UK Singles Chart, having debuted at number 80[7] and made its way to number 52 entirely based on streams.[8] On 8 July 2015, the Official Charts Company announced that it was number one in the Official Chart Update, and was scheduled to be the UK's first Friday number one in 55 years (they moved the date the chart was announced from Sunday to Friday, giving it five days of sales).[8] This meant that a song about dancing at the weekend got to number one with no sales from Friday or Saturday.

The song reached the top spot in the UK Singles Chart on 10 July 2015,[1] and that same day, it debuted at number 62 in the Irish Singles Chart.[9] The record topped the UK Dance Chart[10] and charted at number 19 on the Irish Singles Chart.[11]
