ELLENTON, Fla. (December 29, 2016) – Feld Entertainment announced today that Nashville-based artist DJ KO will return for all 14 rounds of the 2017 AMSOIL Arenacross season. The certified platinum producer released his first EP in 2016, High Gravity, which includes the single “Step Up,” the music video commemorated and highlighted the award-winning producer’s first season with the championship series.
“The 2017 Arenacross Season is going to be epic! I am honored to announce I will be joining the show for all of the dates! This will be my second year on the road with the most intense show to hit your city. DJ KO and Feld Entertainment are looking to take this show to a whole new level! Hope you are ready,” exclaimed DJ KO.
DJ KO will continue to enhance the AMSOIL Arenacross fan experience from track parties to the live event. As an ACM nominated artist to being a recognized RIAA Certified Platinum producer as one half of Phivestarr Productions, DJ KO is a staple in the county music world; he has worked with renowned artists like Brantley Gilbert, Jamie Johnson, Colt Ford, and has done official remixes for Carrie Underwood, Jake Owen and Dolly Parton. He is a fixture in the Atlanta music scene, a resident DJ at Atlanta’s premier EDM venue, “Opera Nightclub,” and was runner up in the “Red Bull Thre3style” DJ competition in 2011.
While unparalleled levels of competition will serve as the foundation of the 2017 season, DJ KO’s hard-hitting beats will provide the perfect platform for excitement and drama produced on the track.
