New Year’s Eve: Kaskade, Duran Duran

Kaskade plans on leading partiers into the undiscovered country that is 2017 when the DJ/producer/singer headlines the Bill Graham Auditorium in San Francisco Dec. 31.

It’s been a great year for Kaskade. He played the Los Angeles Convention Center in May where he entertained 30,000 fans – the largest audience that’s ever attended one of his solo headlining gigs. The evening also marked the first EDM event at the venue.

Kaskade’s recent releases include “Beneath With Me” with Deadmau5 and featuring Skylar Grey, and his remix of Alicia Keys’ “In Common.” He also released a set of remixes for his song “Fakin It” with Felix Cartal, and “Jorts FTW” (Ft. Too Many Zooz).

Presales begin Oct. 26 at 10 a.m. for fans who have signed up at KaskadeMusic.com. Public onsale launches Oct. 28 at 10 a.m. All times PDT. Click here for more information.

Not only can fans count on welcoming 2017 with Duran Duran when the iconic Brit band plays The Theater at MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill, Md., Dec. 31, but they can also spend the first evening of the new year with the “The Wild Boys.”
