7 pm Jacob Martin aka DJ Clover is born-and-raised in Washington State and grew up in the small city of Covington and has lived in Seattle with their cat since 2022. Their love for music started at an early age when they received a radio player and the musical stylings of the late 90s/early 2000s possessed their spirit. For years, they built up their music collection and refined their tastes while finding themselves enamored with the rave scene. Drawing early influences from Zedd, David Guetta, Swedish House Mafia, Daft Punk, and blending them with newer influences from Dom Dolla, Sammy Virji, Mark Knight, and Fedde Le Grand; DJ Clover loves to deliver a joyful vibe to the dance floor that will surely get you on your feet and wishing the night would never end!
