AUGUST 1, 2013
On the back of a phenomenal year in his homeland, in which he released hits such as ‘Ah Yeah’ and ‘The Viking’ and also took home the ‘inthemix’ gong for Breakthrough Artist of 2013, people have started to take note of the 20-year-old Melbourne native’s entirely unique, ahead of the curve and bouncy productions. With calls coming in from all corners of the US and Canada, the time is ripe for Will Sparks to showcase first hand what the fuss is all about.
The budding producer is set to play a monster 24 dates in just over a month; his very first experience playing to his fans on North American soil. The tour kicks off in the “City of Brotherly Love”, Philadelphia, at Whisper Nightclub, before touching down at sacred places such as XS in Las Vegas, Pacha in New York City and Kaleidoscope Festival in Oregon.
Will Sparks recently took the biggest step in his career, when his official remix of Robin Thicke’s summer smash, ‘Blurred Lines’ dropped to great fanfare on Beatport. Having racked up over 250,000 SoundCloud hits with his tantalizing 75-second preview in the week leading up to release, the full version, OUT NOW on Pharell Williams’ very own imprint, Star Trak Entertainment, has already reached the top 5 on Beatport with its eyes firmly locked in on that number one spot.
