The popular music producer is promising a DJ set that'll be unlike any other.
Are you ready to dance the night away with Galantis?
Mega-pop producer Christian Karlsson is gearing up for a once-in-a-lifetime performance at the WorldPride Music Festival where queer fans from across the globe will hear a specially-curated set made just for them.
The musician is also hoping that the event will help combat all of the negatively surrounding LGBTQ+ equality in these very troubling times.
"We all need it right now! Love is love and love will conquer always. They can't drown love. It's going to always conquer. We just need to stand up and stay stuff. You always have to fight back," Karlsson says.
As gay rights continue to serve as a hot button topic politically, the star is reminding queer people and allies to keep up the good fight and that love always wins in the end.
"It's insane to even have the conversation about love is love. That, to me, is a bizarre thing to even talk about. We're here! I love working on my sets and changing things. I want people to know that though sets are unique, it's for them."
For over 10 years now, Karlsson has hit the studio with every A-list artist imaginable, including Britney Spears, Dolly Parton, Katy Perry, Jennifer Lopez, Little Mix, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, and more.
It's certainly safe to say that fans will be able to sing along to every chart-topping single that'll be incorporated in Karlsson's very special performance.
"The DJ part of it is something that I love so much. I get to actually rework mashups of other people's music that I love. That's the best of being a DJ! I will never stop doing that."
As if the WorldPride Music Festival weren't enough, Galantis will be teaming up with Joel Corry at an official afterparty with Echostage
The premiere party organizer recruited top talent including Trixie Mattel, Zedd, Purple Disco Machine, and more to make Pride in Washington, D.C. even more memorable for everyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
