Clearview and Chaos: From Warehouse Parties to a Cultural Landmark

In this episode of What In East Dallas Is Going On?!, Camille and Rich sit down with the one and only Jeff Swaney, entrepreneur, author, and the man behind Club Clearview, the legendary hotspot that helped define Deep Ellum’s golden era.

Jeff doesn’t just tell stories. He lived them. From booking the Red Hot Chili Peppers before they blew up, to late-night mural battles, to collaborating with Mark Cuban, Jeff takes us on a ride through the grit, chaos, and magic that built a cultural movement in Dallas.

We talk about his new book None of the Answers, why Deep Ellum mattered then (and still does now), and what it means to trust your gut, break the rules, and build community through art, music, and pure energy.

This one is fast, raw, and full of heart. Just like Jeff.
