Gordo Announces Decision to ‘Slow Down’ for Remainder of the Year and Play Only ‘3-4 Shows’
A musical chameleon, GORDO valiantly shares his plans to “slow down” touring to only “3-4 shows” until 2025.
Renowned DJ/producer GORDO has shocked the music industry with his announcement to halt the breaks on touring. Celebrated for his lively performances and boundary-pushing mentality, the artist revealed his decision to scale back live appearances on Instagram. Consequently, GORDO has opted to play only a handful of shows in the coming months.
GORDO rose to prominence under the alias Carnage, captivating audiences worldwide with his blend of trap, hip-hop, and electronic music. His meteoric rise saw him headlining major festivals, collaborating with A-list artists such as Hardwell, Borgore, and Timmy Trumpet. Since his reinvention, GORDO has boasted collaborations with more major names like Mochakk, Martinez Brothers, and Adriatique.
In his candid post, GORDO expressed a desire to prioritize his well-being and focus on quality over quantity. Citing the lack of time to process his recent milestones, he further emphasized the need to step back and recalibrate. Specifically, GORDO wrote that he’s been working so hard “tryna prove everyone wrong that I haven’t really taken time to myself to enjoy these wins”.
Importantly, he asked fans to add venue suggestions in the comments, as he will only be playing 3-4 more U.S. shows in 2024. The decision to limit his performances comes as a surprise to many, given GORDO’s reputation for constant traveling and features on top lineups. Throughout his career, GORDO has maintained a rigorous touring schedule, delivering high-energy sets to sold-out crowds across the globe.
Despite his scaled-back touring plans, GORDO will surely make up for lost time at the select U.S. shows he plays. Fans and industry insiders alike have expressed both understanding and curiosity about what this means for the future of his career. Unsurprisingly, GORDO reassured the public that “he’s not going anywhere… just not gonna be slaving every weekend.”
Despite his recent decision to slow down, GORDO continues to be a luminary in the landscape of contemporary electronic music. As fans eagerly await the specifics of his exclusive U.S. performances, GORDO’s inimitable show presence will undoubtedly garner wide support.
