Marshmello Bringing Sweet Beats to the Rodeo

Add “sweet” to the list of adjectives we’re using to describe RodeoHouston 2020 because Marshmello is bringing his cotton-candy beats to the Bayou City. Known for his slick synths and sugary confection-shaped helmet, the EDM superstar will perform at Rodeo on Friday, Mar 20. 

Like previously announced Friday headliner, Lizzo, Marshmello had an explosive year in 2019. He broke the record for longest-running No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart with 2018 Bastille collab “Happier,” took home his second consecutive American Music Award for Favorite EDM Artist, and became the first DJ to hold a concert inside online video game Fortnite. 

The majority of this year’s lineup, which includes Chis Stapleton, Khalid, and Becky G, was announced in January. Check back this afternoon for the final Rodeo Houston artist reveal.  

Tickets for the final three performances go on sale 10 a.m. Thursday, Feb 6, at rodeohouston.com with the “online waiting room” opening at 9:30 a.m.

After leaving her hometown of Baltimore, Emma spent five years covering arts & culture in the mountains of Virginia before joining Houstonia in January 2020. During her tenure in the commonwealth, she walked with ghosts through the state's oldest municipal cemetery, became BFFs with one of the writers behind the Despicable Me franchise, and borderline stalked an Elvis Tribute Artist — but in her defense, she won multiple awards for that story, and he was crowned the world's best ETA. Her work has been picked up by The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times and The Associated Press. When Emma's not chasing down a story, taking in a musical, or watching a superhero TV show, she's spending time with her giant, sweet potato fry-stealing cat, Boh (named after Charm City icon Natty Boh), whose raison d'etre is to be a real-life Garfield.
