ABOUT MARTIN GARRIX:
Martin Garrix has risen to global stardom in pop as well as electronic circles – and yet he’s far from being done. Dance music’s freshest talent has headlined festivals around the globe, founded a label and mentored other artists and won the #1 spot in DJ Mag’s Top 100 twice. His passion, ambition, drive and maturity remain unmatched in the world. ‘Animals’ released in 2013 was a breakout success and a game changer for the music industry. Reaching No.1 in the UK and many other territories, it proved that a hard-hitting dancefloor-oriented track could reach pop status, ultimately reaching over a billion streams across several platforms.

The five years since have been marked by a quick march through the ranks of dance music, conquering stages all around the world and releasing more breakout hits including ‘In The Name Of Love’ with Bebe Rexha, the highly acclaimed ‘Scared To Be Lonely’ which became Dua Lipa’s breakthrough song, ‘There For You’ with Troye Sivan and ‘So Far Away’ with David Guetta, featuring Jamie Scott & Romy Dya. Garrix’ musical achievements have not gone unnoticed. They were awarded with two MTV EMAs in 2016, holding the #1 spot in the 2017 DJ Mag Top 100, a ‘Man of Today’ accolade from GQ, a spot among Forbes’ ‘30 Under 30’ and another at Billboard’s ‘EDM Power Players’. Last but not least, he performed at Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show twice, as the first Dutch guest ever.

Looking at 2018, the Dutch superstar is set to continue his winning streak. He kicked off the year with a performance at the Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony in Pyeongchang and with STMPD RCRDS now firmly established, he has free range to do exactly what he loves most: making music.

ABOUT KHALID:
Five-time Billboard Music Award nominee Khalid dropped his AU certified GOLD debut album AMERICAN TEEN in 2017 to instant critical acclaim shattering expectations as it stayed on the Billboard 200 chart for more than 60 weeks. Rolling Stone titled Khalid a “pop prodigy” and Time magazine revealed: “His thoughtful, relatable reflections on modern youth culture and the limitations of love are just as pitch-perfect as his soulful, measured delivery.” The full-length debut features Khalid’s massive 5 x AU PLATINUM smash ‘Young Dumb & Broke’ and 3 x AU PLATINUM hit ‘Location’.  Khalid’s infectious sound has continued to dominate the local and international airwaves, affirming him as the contemporary music maestro in 2018. In Australia alone, ‘Silence’ featuring Marshmello has achieved 5 x PLATINUM certification, whilst previously released singles ‘Saved’ has achieved PLATINUM certification, ‘Love Lies’ featuring Normani is certified 2 x PLATINUM and ‘OTW’ featuring Ty Dolla $ign and 6lack is certified PLATNIUM.

Khalid visited Australia last November for an incredible sold out tour in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane – and just last week – the breakout start returned to our local shores to perform at the Splendour In The Grass Festival where Khalid joined an epic line-up of artists including Lorde, Kendrick Lamar, Miguel, Gang Of Youths, Vampire Weekend, MGMT and The Wombats.

Since his breakout into the music industry, Khalid has garnered five 2018 Grammy Award nominations, including Best New Artist and landed on the cover of Billboard’s 2018 Grammy Preview issue. He was also nominated for 2017 BET Award for Best New Artist, a Teen Choice Award for R&B/Hip-Hop Song and a 2017 American Music Award for Favourite Song-Soul/R&B. Khalid also won Best New Artist at the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards, an MTV’s Woodie to Watch Award and a Billboard Award for Top New Artist.
