Kiss & Tell is a girly after work theme party, started by artist Seze
Devres in December 2005. Each month she invites her favorite DJs to
play a vintage dance music set, in a genre specific to the theme. The
party has started a tradition of hosting well known techno DJs eager
to play non-techno sets, filled with the all the records that inspired
their earliest love of music.
Since December 2007 Bethany Benzur has
been the resident DJ at Kiss & Tell. With her encyclopedic knowledge
of disco, electro and italo, she has helped craft the party's own
sound.
It's the
perfect place for ladies to dance to the songs they always wanted to
hear at their sweet sixteen. It all as a place
for Seze's coven of gothypants ladyfriends to get together to knit,
have a few drinks, and, well... Kiss & Tell! It has evolved into a
party for music lovers who are bored with the usual parties that
dominate DJ nights in New York.
The party attracts a sexy crowd of nightlife regular partiers and creative
professionals who want to have a few drinks and meet like minded
folks. Whoever tells the hostess the sauciest kiss and tell secret of
the night wins a fabulous prize.
Thank you to Beyond Booking for support and promotion.

Kiss & Tell creator: Seze Devres, of Turkish descent, was raised in New York City. An artist, designer, photographer, and occasional party hostess, Seze is involved in many aspects of creativity and music. Since 1995, she has been creating camera-less photographs (photograms) that explore the potentials of light and color through abstraction. Her abstract images have received worldwide recognition through exhibitions in numerous solo and group shows in the United States, Turkey, and France; her newest video work, based on her photograms, was recently shown at Lincoln Center in New York. Seze is equally as passionate about music as visual art, and has created artwork for special limited edition releases for many sound artists and record labels. For years, Seze has been photographing parties, concerts, and social events in New York City on a regular basis, and since 2006, she has been invited to photograph the hugely successful museum parties for the PS1/MoMA Warm Up events. In 2005 she started Kiss & Tell, a girly after-work cocktail party with a new theme each month. The party has started a tradition of hosting well known electronic music DJs eager to do something different, and play sets filled with the all the vintage dance music that inspired their love of music. And for the past five years she has been photographing at The Bunker, a world-renowned weekly techno party in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Seze's images and designs have graced dozens of galleries, record covers, posters, flyers, magazines, galleries, posters, and websites. She has probably already photographed you.
