EDC Las Vegas 2021 was a monumental weekend for many reasons. This year was the 25th anniversary of the event. The first EDC since the start of the pandemic. One of the most challenging live event productions in the world this year due to COVID-19 restrictions. The line up for this year was one of the greatest to date. Although there were many milestones made this year, one stands out in particular. Emerging young artist Moore Kismet made history. This past weekend they set a record for youngest artist to perform at EDC. At just 16 years old the young DJ took the stage to perform in front of thousands.
To say that 2021 has been a big year would be an understatement. Coming off of a tremendous honor of last years Billboard’s 21 under 21, Kismet has not slowed down once. Just this year alone Moore Kismet has also earned the title of youngest performer ever at Lallapalooza, along with headlining other major events such as Electric Zoo. They also released their third EP titled “Flourish” featuring stand out names such as Laxcity, and got the chance to create Apple Music’s Pride 2021 DJ Mix.
Who are they?
Moore Kismet’s identity is something they pride themselves in. Being openly non-binary, and pansexual, Kismet is paving the way for many LGBTQ+ artists and artists of color.
I’m so blessed to be a part of a generation that’s leading LGBTQ+ creatives and artists of color into the industry.
