Bora Uzer, born in Türkiye, is set to bring his signature live energy and style to SERUM Chicago on November 14th. Earlier this year, Bora held down a Saturday night residency at Ibiza’s iconic Pacha nightclub, where he led the well-known Flower Power party throughout the summer. A multi-instrumentalist, he blends guitar, vocals, and DJing into one fluid performance, creating an immersive and memorable experience for audiences around the world.

He’s performed at major international venues including Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver, Ushuaïa Ibiza, and Tomorrowland Brazil. Bora has also toured across the U.S. with Rüfüs Du Sol, known for building real-time sets that respond to the energy of the room. With more than 20 years in the game, he’s worked with artists like Wyclef Jean and released music on respected labels such as Diynamic and Renaissance.

The Flower Power party at Pacha—known for its 1960s-inspired themes and vibrant production—took on new life in 2024 with Bora as its headliner. Incorporating live instrumentation and improvisation into each set, his performances reflected both his musical roots and global influences. Themes like Holi Ibiza, Circodelia, and Future of Freedom added depth to the party’s nostalgic concept, giving it a refreshed and modern identity.
