Biography

The Stafford Brothers are the fastest growing Australian phenomenon in dance music.

As DJs, the Stafford Brothers have entered a league of their own, regarded as the ultimate fun loving, party starting, anything goes champions of the stage. In 2010 they were announced as the official support act for The Prodigy on their Australian stadium tour and shortly after were announced to be headlining the 2011 Future Music Festival alongside The Chemical Brothers and Ke$ha playing to crowds of up to 50,000 in their native Australia. 2012 saw Future Music Festival perfomances sharing the main stage with SHM, Skrillex & Fatboy Slim. The mother of all achievements came in the form of the visual kind when Australia’s biggest cable network Fox8 announced the premier of ‘The Stafford Brothers’, their very own fly on the wall music & reality TV show showing in the slot directly after Australian Idol.

In January 2011, hundreds of thousands of viewers tuned in as Australian dance music was taken to a new level. Camera crews followed Matt, Chris, family and management across Europe as they ventured into the heavyweight leagues of Ibiza and beyond. As the show’s ratings continued to hike each week, so did the realization that The Stafford Brothers are a dominant force on the move. The last episode of Season One aired to record numbers, and in that same week the boys boarded a plane for LA embarking on a 35-date world tour, which saw the guys on the road for 80 days. Series 2 aired in Australia in January to record numbers featuring content from the Amsterdam Dance Conference, Miami WMC, Asia and interview pieces with Carl Cox & Roger Sanchez.

“We’ve been doing this for 10 years. Now that we have a TV show we get a lot of attention from new fans that think we are new to the scene. I’m proud of where we have come from and while it’s great touring overseas all the time, there’s always a special love for Australia.” - Matt Stafford.

Over fifty Stafford Brothers releases are available on heavyweight labels such as Ministry of Sound, Toolroom, Defected, Flamingo Records, Stealth, Central Station, Armada, We Play and many more. In 2009, ‘Wherever’ vs Hoxton Whores (Ministry of Sound) was their first single to garner high chart positions going straight to #2 on the Aria Club Chart. The track stayed in the charts so long it earned a place respectively in the Top 50 Club tracks of 2009, coming in at an impressive #17.

Since the success of ‘Wherever’ a string of Stafford Brothers releases have followed including collaborations with Tom Neville, Jean Elan, Christian Marchi, Gregori Klosman, Dabruck & Klein, Tommy Trash and remixes of Snoop Dogg/Akon, Mark Knight/Dirty South, DJ Fresh/Dizzee Rascal and Roger Sanchez/ Sidney Sampson.

March 2012 has seen Stafford Brothers move to become LA based as we announce a major residency with TAO Group Worldwide.
