Hollywood Popular Artists

Is it too easy to begin this post with a reference to Dirty South's version of the Diddy-Dirty Money hit "I'm Coming Home"?

Maybe. But frankly that couldn't be more fitting for the occasion. On Monday (April 23), Kaskade revealed exclusively to MTV in a new tour video that he's added epic home-state dates in Los Angeles, and San Francisco to his already mammoth, 50-plus date "Freaks of Nature" tour. His July 27 gig in L.A. will make him the first solo electronic dance musician ever to headline the Staples Center. The show will be followed by a hearty showing the next day in San Francisco, where his career in music began.

Buddies Alvin Risk, Fareoah, Treasure Fingers and Le Castle Vania will be joining EDM icon Kaskade on his "Freaks of Nature" tour. Pre-sales for L.A. and San Francisco will be available tomorrow (April 24) at 10 a.m. PST, with general on-sale tickets becoming available Friday, April 27 at 10 a.m. PST.
