Kaytranada announces tour with Justice, Barclays Center show. Get tickets

Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. Prepare to party. Kaytranada announced he's striking out on a 13-concert co-headlining tour with Justice this fall. Starting Oct. 16, the pair of electro icons will launch their brief North American trek at Vancouver's Rogers Arena. From there, they'll hit Seattle (Oct. 17), Portland (Oct. 19), Phoenix (Oct. 30), Denver (Nov. 1) and Chicago (Nov. 5). Toward the end of the run, the remix rockers are scheduled to make their one New York stop when they drop into Brooklyn's Barclays Center on Saturday, Nov. 8. On the outing, fans will likely hear cuts from Kaytranada's rapturously-received third studio album 'Timeless' which featured Childish Gambino, Anderson .Paak and Don Toliver as well as Justice's Grammy-winning record 'Hyperdrama.' And, while nothing is confirmed, we'd bet good money one or both of the co-headliners works Kaytranda's hypnotic remix of Justice's 'Neverender' into the set list. 'He took moments to hype up everybody and would dance behind his mixing table,' The Panther Newspaper wrote in a glowing review of Kaytranada's 2024 'Timeless Tour.' 'It felt as though he was as big of a fan of his music as we were, and you could see him singing the lyrics of his featured artists. He was having fun, so we were having fun.' Fans can purchase tickets for all upcoming Kaytranada shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Friday, July 25. Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand. They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event. Kaytranada Justice tour schedule 2025 A complete calendar including all tour (and festival) dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found below. Kaytranada 2025 festival appearances The 32-year-old is going to be quite busy these next few months. Ahead of the fall '25 tour, Kaytranada is lending his talents to a trio of festivals. For a closer look, here's everything you need to know about each of them. Kaytranada festival dates Ottawa Bluesfest July 17-20 at LeBreton Flats Park in Ottawa, ON, CA Green Day, Sean Paul, G-Eazy, Badbadnotgood, Peach Pit HARD Summer Festival Aug. 2-3 at Hollywood Park in Inglewood, CA Dom Dolla, Feid, Gesaffelstein, Busta Rhymes, Four Tet Breakaway Carolina Sept. 26-27 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, NC John Summit, Bob Moses, Louis The Child, Eli Brown, Disco Lines Justice 2025 festival appearance Ahead of the tour, Justice will jam at Las Vegas' iHeartRadio Music Festival, which goes down at Sin City's T-Mobile Arena Sept. 19-20. Fellow headliners include Ed Sheeran, Lil Wayne, LL Cool J, Maroon 5 and Bryan Adams among others. Want to go? Single and multi-day iHeartRadio Music Festival passes can be scooped up here. Kaytranada new music On June 7, 2024, Kaytranada delivered his third solo studio album 'Timeless' to the world. Made up of two discs and 21 tracks, the record is a bouncy, sample-heavy funk party that never drags despite its 63-minute runtime. Featuring guest verses from Childish Gambino, Don Toliver, Anderson .Paak, Thundercat, PinkPantheress, Mariah The Scientist, and more, 'Timeless' marries inventive, good-time music with some of the most gifted vocalists alive. Rather than pick favorites — if we could, we'd recommend all 21 unique, lively tunes — we suggest listening to 'Timeless' here. More recently, he dropped the singles 'Oh Lala' with Justine Skye and 'The Mood' with Flo as well as Justice and Mariah Carey covers. To hear all of them, check out Kaytranada's complete discography here. Justice new music On April 26, 2024, Justice dropped the endlessly catchy 'Hyperdrama.' Although they've remixed the record forwards and backwards at this point, the original is as gorgeous as EDM gets and more than deserving of its Grammy statuette. Highlights here include the aforementioned jangly start-and-stop bop 'Neverender,' heart rate raising jam 'Generator,' thumping, funky 'One Night/All Night,' nervy throwback 'Incognito' and dreamy, spaced-out 'Mannequin Love.' Still, the slow, elevated shlock of 'Moonlight Rendez-vous' is what we keep coming back to here. It's cheese of the highest degree. My goodness, that sax! We could listen to its atmospheric horn do its thing for hours on end and never tire of this one. To hear for yourself, click here to find 'Hyperdrama.'

'World-first' Abbey Road proposal inspires new song

A couple's proposal has inspired a new record. Christina Teenz Tan and Ron Danziger got engaged inside London's Abbey Road's Studio One in November 2021, while they were recording their co-written track Pie-in-the-Sky - will have their new song Timeless be performed by 2022 Britain's Got Talent star Tom Ball. Like Pie-in-the-Sky, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and London Voices Choir, conducted by Robert Zeigler, recorded with Tom for the single - which will be released on June 27. The song - which has won 40 international awards for excellence in music and artistic direction - celebrates the preciousness of a bond that transcends time, culture, and the human experience. It was composed by Danziger with lyrics by Tan, arranged by Manu Martin, directed by Susan Lim and co-produced by Lim and Martin. The track was mastered by Greg Calbi and Steve Fallone - two of the industry's most respected engineers with a combined 12 Grammy Awards, having worked with Tony Bennett, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, and more. Ron and Christina will walk down the aisle to 'Timeless' when they marry at the Hotel Bel-Air in Los Angeles on June 14. It will then be performed in St Giles Church, London on June 19 as part of the Summer Music in City Churches Festival. Ron, the composer, said: 'Timeless captures the essence of our story—one of deep connection across worlds of science and music. To celebrate our wedding with this piece feels like coming full circle.' Christina, the songwriter, added: 'Writing the lyrics to Timeless was a way of capturing how I saw our journey then. Hearing it now—fully realised with an orchestra, and sung on stage—it feels like our love set to music.' Hear 'Timeless' live in London on June 19, by booking tickets through Pre-order the single by visiting

BET ‘monitoring' situation in Los Angeles ahead of Monday night award show

The BET Awards will go on as scheduled on Monday night amid ongoing protests against immigration raids continue in Los Angeles, California. 'BET remains committed to the safety of our guests and staff,' a spokesperson for BET told CNN in a statement. 'We are working closely with LAPD and monitoring the situation.' Los Angeles has been the site of unrest over the weekend as protests broke out against recent immigration enforcement action in the city. President Donald Trump ordered National Guard troops to the region, against the wishes of both Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California Governor Gavin Newsom. The BET Awards are one of the network's biggest nights. Superstar rapper Kendrick Lamar leads nominees with ten nods, including album of the year for 'GNX' and video of the year for his viral hit, 'Not Like Us.' Lamar is followed by the man he engaged in an epic hip-hop beef with, Drake, as well as fellow rappers Doechii, Future and GloRilla, who have six nominations each. Comedic actor Kevin Hart is hosting. The event is scheduled to take place at 5 p.m. PT at the Peacock Theater in downtown Los Angeles, blocks away from several areas where protests have been taking place. The following is a list of the nominations: Drake and PartyNextDoor, '$Some $Sexy $Songs 4 U' Chris Brown, '11:11 Deluxe' Doechii, 'Alligator Bites Never Heal' Beyoncé, 'Cowboy Carter' GloRilla, 'Glorious' Kendric Lamar, 'GNX' The Weeknd, 'Hurry Up Tomorrow' Future and Metro Boomin, 'We Don't Trust You' Ari Lennox Ayra Starr Coco Jones Kehlani Muni Long Summer Walker SZA Victoria Monét Bruno Mars Chris Brown Drake Fridayy Leon Thomas Teddy Swims The Weeknd Usher 41 Common and Pete Rock Drake and PartyNextDoor, FLO Future and Metro Boomin Jaquees and Dej Loaf Larry June, 2 Chainz, The Alchemist Maverick City Music SZA Featuring Kendrick Lamar, '30 For 30' Doechii Featuring JT, 'Alter Ego' Teddy swims Featuring Giveon, 'Are You Even Real' Dee Billz Featuring Kyle Richh, Kai Swervo, KJ Swervo, 'Beckham' Lil Wayne, Wheezy and Young Thug, 'Bless' Future, Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar, 'Like That' Kendrick Lamar and Sza, 'Luther' Tyler, The Creator Featuring Glorilla, Sexxy Red and Lil Wayne, 'Sticky' The Weeknd Featuring Playboi Carti, 'Timeless' Cardi B Doechii Doja Cat GloRilla Latto Megan Thee Stallion Nicki Minaj Rapsody Sexxy Red BigXThaPlug BossMan Dlow Burna Boy Drake Future Kendrick Lamar Key Glock Lil Wayne Tyler, The Creator Key Glock, '3AM in ToKEYo' Shaboozey, 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' Kehlani, 'After Hours' Doechii, 'Denial is a River' Drake, 'Family Matters' Kendrick Lamar, 'Not Like Us' The Weeknd Featuring Playboi Carti, 'Timeless' Future, Metro Boomin Travis Scott and Playboi Carti, 'Type S**t' Anderson .Paak B Pace Productions and Jacquees Benny Boom Cactus Jack Cole Bennett Dave Free and Kendrick Lamar Dave Meyers Foggieraw Tyler, The Creator 41 Ayra Starr BigXThaPlug BossMan Dlow Dee Billz Leon Thomas October London Shaboozey Teddy Swims Common and Pete Rock Featuring Jennifer Hudson, 'A God (There Is)' Pastor Mike Jr., 'Amen' Fridayy, 'Better Days' Yolanda Adams Featuring Sir The Baptist and Donald Lawrence, 'Church Doors (Terry Hunter Remix)' Maverick City Music, Jordin Sparks, Chandler Moore and Anthony Gargiula, 'Constant' Tamela Mann, 'Deserve to Win' Rapsody, 'Faith' GloRilla Featuring Kirk Franklin, Maverick City Music, 'Rain Down on Me' Chris Brown, 'Residuals' Doechii, 'Denial is a River' Drake, 'Nokia' Future and Metro Boomin Featuring Kendrick Lamar, 'Like That' GloRilla, 'TGIF' Kendrick Lamar, 'Not Like Us' Kendrick Lamar and SZA, 'Luther' Latto, 'Brokey' Any Gabrielly (Brazil) Ayra Starr (Nigeria) Bashy (United Kingdom) Black Sherif (Ghana) Ezra Collective (United Kingdom) Joé Dwét Filé (France) Mc Luanna (Brazil) Rema (Nigeria) SDM (France) Tyla (South Africa) Uncle Waffles (Swaziland) Abigail Chams (Tanzania) Ajuliacosta (Brazil) Amabbi (Brazil) Dlala Thukzin (South Africa) Dr Yaro (France) KWN (United Kingdom) Maglera Doe Boy (South Africa) Merveille (France) Odeal (United Kingdom) Shallipopi (Nigeria) TxC (South Africa) Mary J.
