His real name is Andy Carthy, his stage name was inspired by his scruffy facial hair, as well as his trademark loose-lined drawing style seen on his self-designed cover albums and music videos. Mr.Scruff has been DJing for 20 years mixing electronica, house, trip hop and nu jazz. He is known for his marathon sets which can last over 6 hours. As a resident DJ at Manchester Club, the Music Box, he sold tea with proceeds going to charity. Mr.Scruff has since developed a reputation for being the DJ with the teashop and runs an online tea company, called "Make Us A Brew"("Mr.Scruff"). Does it get more British than that?
