Grammy
Award-winning and multi-platinum selling DJ Calvin Harris unveiled
his new touring production show at Coachella last Sunday. His
landmark headlining slot at the festival on the main stage featured guest spots by
Rihanna, Big Sean and John Newman.
Harris repeats the set this coming Sunday at Coachella2.
The show fused stadium scale live show production with DJ worldflow. Using uniquely customized software, Calvin was able to play any track from his record box and still have bespoke programmed lights, video, lasers and sfx.

Harris repeats the set this coming Sunday at Coachella2.
The show fused stadium scale live show production with DJ worldflow. Using uniquely customized software, Calvin was able to play any track from his record box and still have bespoke programmed lights, video, lasers and sfx.
The
visionary design featured the largest concentration of light ever used
in any show, so much so that Calvin’s team secured every single Solaris
Flare lighting fixture available in the United States. The show
also featured two unique elements specific to Coachella that took
months of negotiating with festival owners and production teams to
achieve.
Calvin
commented “I’m very proud of the new stage show we've put together and
couldn’t be more thankful to everyone who stayed out to party last
night.”
Paul
Macrae, Head of Touring at Three Six Zero shared: “We wanted to deliver
an innovative and immersive show that compliments Calvin’s performance.
It was very important for him to maintain his DJ workflow rather
than playing back a time coded track. We gave him this flexibility
along with pinpoint timing on all lighting and video cues, something
rarely achieved.”

Harris made history as the first DJ to be billed as a premiere
headliner at the globally renowned music festival, performing on both
Sunday night dates (April 17th and April 24th).
The groundbreaking performance was not Harris’s first Coachella
performance – in his last in 2014, the festival drew one of the largest
crowd’s in Coachella's history.
Harris recently won the iHeartRadio Award for Dance Artist of the Year (2016). The Scottish Producer/DJ recently extended his residency deal at the OMNIA
Nightclub at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, where he will play Friday night performances on select dates throughout 2016.
