About this artist
Party-starting Australian sibling duo Stafford Brothers spin crowd-pleasing electronic floor-shakers that echo acts like Cash Cash, the Knocks, Major Lazer, and Tommy Trash. Debuting in the early 2010s, the pair took their club-friendly house anthems across the world, from Australia through Europe and to Los Angeles. In-between, they starred in their own reality television show, taking fans along for their wild international antics. Chris and Matt Stafford hail from the Gold Coast and began releasing music in the early 2010s. Attention garnered from singles “Pressure” with MDPC and “I Gave You Everything” with Juan Kidd and Rae resulted in signing with American rap label, Cash Money Records, in 2012. Their first single for the label was “Hello” with Lil Wayne and Christina Milian. Despite the success of the track — it went triple platinum in Australia — the Staffords soon parted ways with Cash Money. In 2013, they issued the cavernous “Are You Ready” and the booming “Wicked Child” with Jason Herd and Sherry St. Germain. They continued to release one-off singles over the following years, such as “This Girl” with Eva Simons and T.I. and “When You Feel This” with Jay Sean and Rick Ross in 2014; “Rasta Jump” with Joe Ghost and Bunji Garlin in 2016; and “The Money” with Waka Flocka Flame in 2018. Meanwhile, they maintained a pair of radio shows in both Australia and the United States. ~ Neil Z. Yeung
