Jai Wolf, the Bangladesh-born emcee and producer who moved to the U.S. with his family at the age of one, started off as an all-state violinist in New York.

After spending his teenage years making tracks, Wolf caught the attention of Skrillex, upon releasing a remix of the dubstep iconโ€™s โ€œEase My Mind.โ€

Many remixes, a Sunset Music Festival appearance, and one full-length album later, the 31-year-old is currently on the heels of โ€œWant It All,โ€ a new single with a piano foundation, a music video entirely made up of a couple dancing in different visual art forms, all featuring vocals from indie-pop up-and-comer Evalyn.

Fellow EDM faces Devault and Tsu Nami open Wolfโ€™s first-ever St. Petersburg show.

Tickets to see Jai Wolf play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg, Florida on Friday, Aug. 18 are still available and start at $29.50.
