3LAU is a world-renowned DJ, producer, and recording artist with millions of monthly listeners. Forbes dubbed him “The DJ That Turned Down Wall Street” after he declined an offer from BlackRock to pursue his dream of making music. 3LAU went on to release a string of hits including “How You Love Me”, “Is It Love”, and “On My Mind”. Beyond his original tracks, 3LAU has released remixes for Rihanna, Katy Perry, Shawn Mendes, and Ariana Grande — all of which have racked up millions of streams. More recently, he collaborated with world famous gamer Ninja and HYO of Girls’ Generation. In 2016, 3LAU launched Blume Records, an independent label with a ground-breaking model that harnesses the power of streaming to raise money for charitable causes. In 2018, 3LAU released his debut album Ultraviolet featuring the hit single “Touch”. Both reached #1 on the iTunes Electronic chart. 3LAU has performed at EDC, Ultra, Electric Zoo, Lollapalooza, and Life is Beautiful, in addition to his extensive international tours spanning the last decade. Beyond all of his accomplishments in music, 3LAU is bringing together his interests in tech, business, and crypto to experiment with his art and innovate upon the music industry as we know it.
