Tyler Whitaker

FOUNDER/DESIGNER/EVENT PRODUCER

Tyler Whitaker (aka Mx. Demeanor) is a Queer Somerville-based artist, designer, event producer, & DJ.

Creator and host of iconic local events like Sheer Bliss, Clown Town, & Sip!, and a founding member of the Queer arts event collective Now What?, Tyler is deeply committed to cultivating spaces of radical joy through art, music, and dance.

A force of nature both on the dance floor and behind the booth, Mx. Demeanor’s genre-defying selections are designed to ignite ecstatic movement. A formally trained dancer, Tyler curates sounds for bodies in motion: the freaks on the floor, the sweeties by the subwoofer, and the baddies in the booth.
