Hercules & Love Affair

About the Artist

Hercules & Love Affair is a dynamic musical project led by DJ and producer Andy Butler, known for blending house music with disco, electronic, and soulful vocals. Their live performances are a vibrant celebration of inclusivity and dance culture, often featuring a rotating cast of vocalists and collaborators that bring a theatrical and emotionally charged atmosphere to the stage. The project gained significant attention with the track "Blind," which showcases their knack for combining poignant lyrics with infectious beats. Fans often recall the project's rise as a beacon of queer club culture in the late 2000s, with Butler's own experiences as a gay man deeply influencing the music's themes of love, identity, and resilience. Their shows are not just concerts but communal experiences, where the energy is as much about connection and expression as it is about the music itself. Butler's wry humor and candid storytelling during performances add a layer of intimacy, making each show feel like a shared secret among friends rather than a typical DJ set.
