WANDERERS defender Nicky Hunt is trying his hand at a new "career" - as a headline DJ at a top Bolton nightspot.
Hunt, who has a passion for music and loves mixing records and spinning the turntables in his spare time, will be at The Bar in Nelson Square every Sunday .
He first started out on the record decks of Wanderers' team-mate Ricardo Gardner until, after numerous practice sessions, he opted to play on a bigger stage.
Hunt is now headlining the Portuguese-African themed night at The Bar.
He said: "I have always had an interest in music and would love to pursue a career in DJing when my footballing life comes to an end. We have a number of African and Portuguese players in the team and the music in our dressing room often changes. However, I usually change it back to something I like, such as hip hop and Rn'B."
The sessions, at 7pm, will feature African dance, percussion and vocals and a free buffet before 10pm.
