Chromeo announces Las Vegas residency at Drai’s Nightclub

An extended Las Vegas residency was a way for musicians to still be relevent after their radio sucess whether it is Celine Dion, Boyz II Men, or Guns N’ Roses. With the current rise of EDM, artists such as Avicii and Kaskade have set up a residency in Vegas and pop stars followed their lead such as Britney Spears. 

Now, Chromeo has announced a summer residency at Drai’s Beachclub • Nightclub. The pair who is booked to play festivals such as Glastonbury, Sasquatch! and Governers Ball, seemed to have made an odd choice in booking this but that’s exactly why they chose it. 

Drai’s managing partner Ryan Michael Craig said in a press release: “Chromeo leads a part of the music industry that the nightlife scene hasn’t experimented with much, until now. They exude a specific sound and energy that resonates with all kinds of people.  Their participation in our Drai’s LIVE concert series will bring a completely different dynamic to the current state of headliners throughout Las Vegas.”

The first scheduled performance is July 31st and there are shows August 28th and October 9th that are also scheduled. They will play a few DJ sets at the Beachclub, the first is scheduled for May 22nd.
