Club Nowhere x Opal Underground presents: Jeffrey Sfire

Portland nightlife staple Opal Underground and recently debuted Club Nowhere , are teaming up to bring you a night of dance-forward, h ouse music, queer clubbing! Opal Underground x Club Nowhere present: Jeffrey Sfire Jeffrey Sfire ’s introduction to the underground dance scene and illegal warehouse parties of Detroit occurred at the tender age of 15. This escape from suburba led him to some of the city’s most talented DJs and musicians, who soon exposed him to a new culture of creative riches. Learning by example, Sfire ’s taste and skills as a DJ developed naturally and he soon began playing out at parties, clubs and sleazy gay after hours, usually entering covertly through back doors or with a fake ID. A move to Chicago exposed Sfire to a whole other side of dance music history, including "Italo Disco" and genre jumping dj styles of the Hotmix 5 radio djs. He spent afternoons digging through record store crates, meeting retired DJs and developing his musical palette. Having held numerous club residencies, he regularly plays at Cocktail D’amore and Panorama Bar in Berlin, The Carry Nation and Wrecked in New York, Hard French in San Francisco, Honcho events, and his own party Club Toilet and Loosen Up in Detroit, consistently offering a finely-tuned selection of Acid House, Italo Disco, Latin Freestyle, & 90’s NYC House. In 2013 Jeffrey and SOPHIE released the first untitled “ Sfire ” record on Cocktail d'Amore Music out of Berlin which has become a cult classic. Since then the duo has released 3 more untitled “ Sfire ” records. He is currently living in Detroit and is one half of the Italo/Electro duo Looky Looky with Ian Clark released on Dark Entries records of San Francisco. Opening sets from Sappho & DJ Orso
