A panda looks out over a rabid crowd of thousands as he drops banger after banger from an elevated stage in the glow of neon, pyro, strobes, spotlights, and lasers. That’s just one evening in the life of the electronic dance mammal White Panda. Though his specific origins remain fuzzy at best, here’s what we know… He originally hailed from somewhere in Chicago, presumably the Lincoln Park Zoo. He and another cub threw their favorite songs into a stew and stirred up mashups online as far back as 2009 and became what Vibe described as “the mashup kings” releasing seven albums between 2009 and 2021. The legend of White Panda had eclipsed 40 Hype Machine #1s, and 300 million listens across streaming platforms. Along the way, he sunk his claws into sets at Lollapalooza, Bottlerock (5x), Electric Zoo, and Firefly (7x) in addition to joining bills with The Chainsmokers, Twenty One Pilots, Tiësto, Ty Dolla $ign, Big Sean, MGMT, and Steve Aoki. During 2018, White Panda announced the departure of his fellow cub as well as the next phase - original music. Since then, he has released several original singles as well as productions with Michael Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Panic! At The Disco, ZAYN, and Katy Perry.
