(September 17, 2024) Today, multi-platinum-certified pop/R&B disruptor singer, songwriter, and dancer Tinashe announced her special contest for her Match My Freak World Tour. For the contest, Tinashe teamed up with SoundCloud, the global artist-first platform that empowers artists and fans to connect and share through music, in a first of its kind partnership to identify an opening DJ for each upcoming tour stop. Looking for a DJ to match her freak, contestants will head to Tinashe’s SoundCloud profile to complete a submission form and make sure their SoundCloud profile is up to date, showcasing their talent. From there, Tinashe will choose a DJ for each location to open the tour. Read more info about the contest here!
“Tinashe's always embraced SoundCloud to connect with fans and experiment with new sounds, and this first-of-its-kind contest is a natural extension of that energy,” said SoundCloud’s Global Head of Music, Emmy Lovell. “We're excited to build on Tinashe's legacy by shining a spotlight on the next generation of artists on SoundCloud.”
Produced by Live Nation, the run kicks off with the 23-date North American leg on October 14 in Anaheim. The tour will hit major cities including Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Atlanta, and Nashville.
