Calvin Harris LIVE in Doha! Legendary Scottish, singer, songwriter, producer and DJ Calvin Harris is set to perform a live gig in Doha in the latest instalment of the infamous Global DJs Beach Parties this March!
C
alvin Harris is the Scottish global hitmaker who rose to fame with his gold-selling debut album, I Created Disco, which boasted two Top Ten Singles, ‘Acceptable in the 80’s’ and ‘The Girls’. His second album, Ready for the Weekend, hit Number One on the UK Album Charts, with one Number One single and one Top Five single cementing the artist’s a-list status. He has since worked with a long list of artists, producing and mixing chart-topping singles for the likes of Kylie Minogue, Dizzee Rascal, Mary J. Blige, the Ting Tings, Tinchy Strider and Rihanna, no less. He has played alongside any of the greats you’d care to mention, from Faithless and Groove Armada to Tiesto, Carl Cox, Afrojack and Rihanna. He is currently on a massive world tour ahead of the release of this third studio album, as yet unnamed, which has so far produced the hugely successful singles ‘Awooga’, ‘Bounce’ (which featured singer Kelis and debuted at Number Two) and ‘Feel So Close’. Harris will be playing on the beach at the InterContinental Doha on March 8, in the latest Global DJs Beach Party. This is a gig you definitely don’t want to miss!
