ABOUT MARTIN GARRIX:
It’s easy to get lost in the numbers behind Martin Garrix’s meteoric rise – the 20 year old Dutch superstar has already set precedents and scored landmarks at every corner of the music industry. Backed by Scooter Braun Projects, Martin has become one of electronic dance music’s youngest superstars, with his 2013 release of his smash hit ‘Animals’ topping the charts in late 2013 at the age of 17. Just three years later, he was voted #1 on 2016’s DJ Mag Top 100 Poll. The young producer has made both Billboard’s prestigious “21 Under 21” 3 times, as well as Forbes’ “30 Under 30” list twice. Last month, Garrix won two 2016 MTV European Music Awards for Best Electronic and Best Worldstage Performance, cementing his stature as a cross over artist to be reckoned with.
In 2015, Garrix won two MTV European Music Awards for Best Electronic Act and for Best Dutch Act. In 2016, Garrix signed a global deal with Sony Music International marking his ascent into the highest reaches of the music industry. His first single for RCA/Sony Music Intl, ‘In The Name Of Love’ featuring Bebe Rexha, amassed over half a billion ‘streams in just 3 months and has become a massive hit worldwide. Garrix remixed of one the biggest pop singles of recent years, The Weeknd’s ‘Can’t Feel My Face,’ and has collaborated with Usher (‘Don’t Look Down’) and Ed Sheeran (‘Rewind Repeat It’). Garrix has residencies at two of world’s most prestigious clubs: Omnia Las Vegas and Ushuaïa Ibiza, and in addition, hosts his own evening every Friday during the summer at Ushuaïa Ibiza called “Multiply” with special guests such as A-Trak, The Chainsmokers, Marshmello, Dillon Francis, and many more. Garrix has also collaborated with world renowned brands such as 7UP and Tag Heuer.
