Stafford Brothers

The Stafford Brothers, a sibling duo from Australia, craft buoyant electronic dance tracks in the style of Cash Cash, the Knocks, Major Lazer, and Tommy Trash. Emerging at the start of the 2010s, the pair carried their upbeat house anthems from their home country through European venues and onward to Los Angeles. During this period they also fronted a reality television series that captured their high-spirited exploits abroad.

Hailing from the Gold Coast, Chris and Matt Stafford issued their first recordings in the early 2010s. Momentum generated by the tracks “Pressure” with MDPC and “I Gave You Everything” with Juan Kidd and Rae led to a 2012 contract with Cash Money Records. Their debut release on the imprint, “Hello” featuring Lil Wayne and Christina Milian, earned triple-platinum status in Australia, yet the brothers soon exited the label. In 2013 they unveiled the expansive “Are You Ready” alongside the driving “Wicked Child” with Jason Herd and Sherry St. Germain. Subsequent standalone releases included the 2014 cuts “This Girl” with Eva Simons and T.I. and “When You Feel This” with Jay Sean and Rick Ross, followed by “Rasta Jump” with Joe Ghost and Bunji Garlin in 2016 and “The Money” with Waka Flocka Flame in 2018. Throughout these years they continued hosting radio programs in both Australia and the United States.
