He’s gone on to win eight Grammys, perform as one half of R&B superduo Silk Sonic, and exquisitely weave hip hop and R&B with classic soul. Performing with orchestra for the first time, Anderson makes his Hollywood Bowl debut alongside his band The Free Nationals, performing his critically acclaimed album, Malibu, and various work such as new work with NxWorries (duo with Kncwledge), Silk Sonic, and DJ Pee .

Anderson will also be performing at the Neon Carnival in Indio on Saturday, April 13. The superstar will be headlining as DJ Pee .Wee. James Kennedy and DJ Hunny Bee will also join the setlist for the desert festival.
