At just 24 years old, Dutch producer and DJ LAVERN is redefining what it means to move hearts on the dancefloor. A rising star in the emotional house movement, his blend of introspective melodies and high-energy club beats has turned viral moments into a global breakthrough—earning him hundreds of millions of streams, cosigns from heavyweights like Kygo and Tate McRae, and a debut Las Vegas residency with Tao Group.
First gaining traction with his 2021 hit Move Me, followed by the anthemic Hold Me, LAVERN’s emotionally rich sound has found its way into both festival mainstages and intimate playlists worldwide. In 2025, he’s not just breaking through—he’s breaking boundaries: supporting Martin Garrix across multiple continents, playing Sziget and Veld, and releasing high-profile collaborations including Higher Power with Gryffin and AR/CO.
With remixes for Tate McRae, Becky G, and Ava Max under his belt, and his name on some of the world’s most iconic stages—from Brooklyn Mirage to EDC Vegas—LAVERN is positioning himself as one of dance music’s next greats.
