Multiple Grammy Award nominee, world-renowned recording artist, DJ, producer, and "dance music king" (Thump), Kaskade announced today that he will perform his first solo headlining show in Los Angeles in over two and a half years on May 7th at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Presented by Insomniac and Exchange LA this unprecedented event will be the first dance music event to take place in the Convention Center's 45-year history and one of the largest shows of the dance music pioneer's career.
ABOUT KASKADE Grammy nominated American recording artist, DJ, and producer Kaskade has remained at the forefront of the dance music world for more than a decade. Creating a career of unprecedented milestones, Kaskade is the first U.S. DJ to secure a Las Vegas residency, the first solo electronic dance artist to sell-out Barclays Center, as well as the first dance artist to sell-out Navy Pier and the Staples Center. Just as comfortable playing packed clubs deep into the night as he is headlining the major festivals around the world, 2015 marked Kaskade's return to the iconic two-weekend Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, where his main stage appearance drew the two largest crowds in the storied sixteen-year existence of the festival. Taking nothing away from his legendary live shows, Kaskade has always maintained that it's the songwriting that comes first, and his nine artist albums and five Grammy nominations back up that claim. Kaskade's latest album Automatic was released in Fall of 2015 and has been streamed over 44.4M times on Spotify since release.
