Ty Sunderland is an American DJ, music producer, and nightlife promoter based in New York City.[1] Known for his inclusive, pop-inflected parties and his role in shaping 21st-century queer nightlife, he is the creator of the club brands Heaven on Earth, Ty Tea, Gayflower, and Love Prism.[2]
Career
[edit]Sunderland first gained attention in the late 2010s for organizing pop-driven queer dance events.[3] In 2017 he launched Heaven on Earth, a late-night party held at the former China Chalet restaurant in Manhattan's Financial District. The event became emblematic of pre-pandemic queer nightlife, blending fashion, music, and performance art in a deliberately inclusive environment.[4]
In 2019 he debuted the disco-house series Love Prism and continued to host his summer boat party Gayflower. The following year, Ty Tea, his daytime Sunday party at 3 Dollar Bill in East Williamsburg, became a fixture of New York's warm-weather queer calendar.[5]
