Shavers’ sets fuse elements of deep, lo-fi, and soulful house, techno, funk, soul, and even punk into an unpredictable yet harmonious whole. He draws from a wide range of influences, from Detroit-area legends Carl Craig, Moodymann, Theo Parrish, Claude Young, Seth Troxler, and Omar S to Derrick Carter, Doc Martin, DJ Heather, Mr. G, and Spencer Parker from Chicago and beyond. In addition, Shavers has had the opportunity to play as support for a variety of international headlining acts, including Louie Vega, Kenny Dope, Earl Mixxin McKinney, Bruce Bailey, Phil Tha Mixx, J Rocc, Tony Humphries, Kenny Bobien, Sonny Fodera, Mark Grant, Colette, Mark Farina, Baltra, and Julius the Mad Thinker. Whether at an intimate nightclub or large-scale party, Shavers connects with listeners on a personal level. Shavers truly loves every track he plays--from a fresh deep house release, a heavy techno track, a soulful classic, or an off-the-wall surprise gem--and it shows. His enthusiasm for music is infectious, drawing listeners into his groove with his uncompromising ear for interesting sounds and thoughtful, unconventional blends. Now curating his own events under the name The Drive, Alvin also is available for gigs throughout the US. Contact Alvin Shavers at:
