This Fall, the big-room power duo, the Stafford Brothers, are taking North America by storm with their 16-date Aussie Invasion tour across the United States and Canada running from September 5th to October 5th. From being signed to Cash Money Records to producing the Official Future Music Festival anthem, “Hands Up,” and getting voted as Australia’s #1 DJs for the third time, the Stafford Brothers’ career has been growing by leaps and bounds with no signs of slowing down. Along with the support from Hook N Sling and Feenixpawl on select dates, they have their sights set on dance floor domination to further their already established presence in North America. For tickets and more information on the Stafford Brothers’ Aussie Invasion Tour visit: http://bit.ly/16qddaE.
Known for their off-the-wall on-stage antics, the Stafford Brothers never cease to keep a crowd engaged and entertained. By tastefully weaving through a refined selection of festival anthems and fan favorites on the decks, they manage to keep the dance floor churning with high-energy intensity. In the midst of their set, they’re often spotted stage diving from dangerous heights and pumping up the crowd to a roaring level. The Stafford Brothers are surely a must-see act on their Aussie Invasion tour.
The third installment of their “Stafford Life” video series gives a behind-the-scenes look on their recent travels Miami to Mexico where they not only partied, hit the studio, and played shows, but also met Birdman and more. Watch Stafford Life: Miami 2 Mexico on the StaffordTV YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/19H2Dym.
