You might have seen him around DJ’ing in parties and even opening for the Cash Cash concert here at Wake. Now, Gio Continanza is embarking on a new journey with his DJ’ing career by rebranding into “SPLVSH.”

(HerCampus): What was your name before rebranding? 

(Gio Continanza): Gio. 

(HC): What was your decision behind choosing to rebrand? 

(GC): SPLVSH is much more brandable than my nickname Gio. 70 percent of music nowadays is about branding, so I saw this as a necessary step in my music career.

(HC): How long did the process to rebrand take? Is it still under progress? 

(GC): It’s still under progress. It’s almost like starting over. New logo, new music, new gigs, new pictures, new everything! 

(HC): Why “SPLVSH”? 

(GC): First, water is the essence of life. 

Second, SPLVSH gets to have the “Splash Zone” during his sets. 

Third, someone who hasn’t heard of SPLVSH can associate him with excitement, joy and happiness because that’s what comes with every splash. 

(HC): Are there any other additional comments you would like to make? Any social media plugs? 

(GC): All supporters of SPLVSH are family, we’re all very nice and friendly. Come meet us here:

Hello! My name is Camilla Zanini and I am from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I am currently in the pre-Business track, but am very interested in psychology as well. One of my favorite past times here at Wake is to walk around the Reynolda trails and to hang an Eno in whatever spot they have. I love travelling and Netflix too!
Hailing from Chicago, this Midwesterner turned Southern Belle is the Editor-in-Chief of Wake Forest University's chapter. When she isn't journaling for fun in her free time, she is obsessed with running around campus in giant sunglasses, wearing gold glitter eyeliner, and munching on trail mix. She's still struggling on saying "y'all" and not "guys" and has yet to try Cookout's legendary milkshakes. Follow her on twitter @Hmonyek!
