Claire White - Trace Harris
Secret Parties...
SMARTIE PARTIE evolved from Trace's 'percussion residency' at Ministry of Sound & the Mudd Club
(Philip Salon's famous parties)... events where people really knew how to party!
In 1995 we (Claire & Trace) hosted a party on the Temple Pier Yacht, the pass-word to gain entry to this event was "smartie partie".
200 people turned up and we rocked that boat till the early hours! After the success of several other private parties, we quickly out-grew this smelly little boat and
moved SP to venues such as Bagleys/Cross/Emporium/Hanover Grand. We then took a 5 year residency at the Ministry of Sound, where our djs, dancers & percussion entertained The Ministry while it was in its prime.
During this time Trace also travelled the world as the Ministry's resident percussionist & along the way set up SP tours in 15+ countries all over the world.
In clubs such as Privilege (ibiza), BCM (mallorca), The Colleseum (Abu Dhabi) & more. After the Ministry we had 3 fantastic years of parties at The Glasshouse,
londons only nightclub to boast river views across the city, before taking on a monthly residency at the legendary 'Turnmills' which became our new home for the next 5yrs.
With the closure of Turnmills in March 2008, SP tested out Scala in Kings Cross as a possible new home.
This vast 4 room venue was the perfect blank canvas for our team to get creative & bring something different & something very special to London's clubland.
With the huge success of this event, we were happy to call this venue our new home & start our new London residency.
