Secluded Events present electronic heavyweights Dave Seaman, Quivver, Higgins, Craig Cassiera, and Dave Lazenby at Network in Sheffield on Friday, August 26, 2022, at 8 PM. It has been billed as the largest event of the year. A swarm of the most talented and experienced hands are slated to perform behind the deck. Tickets for the event are powered by The Ticket Fairy.
The evening’s headliner will be DJ Dave Seaman. He is largely recognized as one of the pioneers of the UK electronic house movement having DJed in more than eighty countries in a career that spans over thirty years. During his illustrious career, DJ Dave has produced beats for Kylie Minogue, Pet Shop Boys, David Bowie, and New Order. Additionally, Seaman co-founded Selador, an independent record label dedicated to nurturing some of the best electronic music artists.
Seaman is joined by legendary DJ and producer John Graham, better known as Quivver. He is widely regarded as one of the world’s top electronic music producers with over twenty years of DJing experience under his belt. His DJ performances are known to cover a wide range of genres, from house to techno, electro to breaks, and DnB. Quivver spent five years on DJ Mag’s list of the Top 100 DJs for his diverse musical approach. His stage pseudonyms include Quivver, Skanna, Stoneproof, and Space Manoeuvres.
Talking about his performance at Secluded, Quivver shared in an Instagram post, “It’s bin a long time Sheffield! Can’t wait to come back to play some tunes for you on August 26th with Dave Seaman, Higgins, and the secluded crew!”
The lineup for the evening also features Sheffield’s homegrown talents. Secluded Event’s very own DJ and music producer Stuart Higgins will share the stage with his peers. Higgins has performed alongside DJs such as Mickey Finn, Grooverider, Swan E, Hype & SS.

Previewing the upcoming show, he shared via Instagram, “So 26 days and counting it will soon be bank holiday weekend where we get to see these too heavyweights of the scene Dave Seaman & Quivver at the Network club Sheffield. What a venue it is as you can see with support from myself Dave Lazenby & Craig Cassiera Holmes.”
DJ Craig Cassiera, a household name at Sheffield, is a former Gatecrasher resident and a seasoned DJ with over ten years of experience. He first gained recognition in the trance and techno scenes for his skills on the turntables. Eventually, Craig drifted toward the progressive house and melodic sounds during the pandemic. Intending to give house & techno more time on the setlist, the DJ announced his new project, GLYPH, a club night dedicated to these genres. He even produced a stunning two-hour house and techno set from Turkey’s Babada? Mountain range during the lockdown.
We reached out to DJ Craig to comment on his upcoming show as he gears up for its preparations. He said, “It’s a great venue, with some cool raised bits that help make for an interesting dancefloor. The line-up sees two of the most respected veterans on the scene so expect an absolute masterclass in prog house. I’ll be warming things up with some seriously emotive tracks. Can’t wait!”
Lastly, the evening will feature DJ Dave Lazenby – an aficionado of house music and a mainstay in the city’s nightclubs. Dave spent his twenties and thirties traveling across the United Kingdom, building a name for himself in progressive house, deep house, and melodic techno. Lazenby is also a resident DJ at Subcode, a platform committed to bringing the best underground music to its listeners. Attendees can expect the opening artists to offer the greatest house, progressive house, and techno beats to warm up the dance floor.
The party will begin this Friday at 8:00 PM at Network, an independent live music and event venue on Matilda Street in Sheffield, England. Network was relaunched in 2021. The newly refurbished space originally housed Sheffield’s Plug, a live music venue and nightclub. The venue presently has a capacity of more than 1500 people and has hosted a slew of artists since its launch. Bands and musicians that have graced Network include English rock bands BlackWaters, Rolo Tomassi, singer-songwriter Cassa Jackson, and Natalie McCool, DJ Mollie Collins, to highlight a few.
