Background

Jeffrey Chan's new single, «Looking», is a celebration of queer hookup culture and modern digital flirtation.

Jeffrey Chan’s Return to the Dancefloor

Australian-born, LA-based pop artist Jeffrey Chan is back at the forefront of queer music with his latest single, «Looking», released on 11 April, 2025. This track is not just a song; it’s a pulsating anthem deeply rooted in the dynamic world of queer hookup culture. With a galvanising beat and a charismatic flair, Chan’s collaboration with Australian DJ/producer Alex Lirosi captures the essence of modern digital flirtation.

A Celebration of Queer Connection

Inspired by the familiar phrase «Are you looking?»—a loaded question often encountered on apps like Grindr—«Looking» merges spoken-word hooks with a driving bass line. Jeffrey notes, «It’s unapologetically horny and honest. This is our culture, our joy, our chaos». The raw energy and relatable lyrics encapsulate not only the thrill of seeking connections but also the sometimes chaotic nature of queer life.

The Exciting Path Ahead

Following his earlier track, «What Are Friends For», Jeffrey continues to broaden his artistic narrative. These songs serve as preludes to his forthcoming EP, which promises to delve into stories of queer existence—messy, intimate, and powerful—paired with infectious dance-pop beats. With over 2 million streams on Spotify and a rapidly growing LGBTQ+ fanbase, Jeffrey has cemented himself as a rising star in the indie pop scene. His performances at events like WeHo Pride and Santa Monica Pride only amplify his connection to the community.

As we await more from Jeffrey Chan, one thing is clear: his music resonates deeply, capturing the spirit of a generation seeking both connection and authenticity on the dancefloor.
