Their 2017 album Changa spawned hits Chameleonand Go Bang, picked up 2017 and 2018 ARIA Awards for Best Dance Release respectively.   Flying in from L.A. exclusively for the special Mardi Gras set, PNAU will perform with a full electronic band set-up with guest vocalist.

Born in Germany, 25 year old pop singer-songwriter Kim Petras has made a huge splash, producing dance floor bangers I Don’t Want it All and Heart to Break, and cementing her rise to celebrity in the United States where she now resides. Kym notably began transitioning with female hormone therapy following her twelfth birthday before receiving gender reassignment surgery at the age of 16. The up and coming star of the moment and an unstoppable force, Petras has collaborated with the likes of Charlie XCX and SOPHIE, as well as touring with queer icon Troye Sivan on his most recent tour of the U.S.A. Her undeniably addictive new track Feeling of Falling already has the music industry predicting Petras to be the next big thing. Petras’ exclusive Mardi Gras Party performance will mark her first time performing in Australia.
