After Taggart had finished school at Syracuse University and Pall had finished his studies at New York University the two started to make music in the year 2012. The duo started out under the management of Adam Alpert, who is known for being the CEO of Disruptor Management, Disruptor Records, and Selector Songs.
The Chainsmokers began garnering a following for their interesting remixes of indie bands. Some of the artists that the band has remixed include Jonsi, Two Door Cinema Club, Phoenix, Icona Pop, and Neon Trees. In 2012 the group collaborated with one of Bollywood’s most famous actresses Priyanka Chopra and released the single “Erase”. The single consists of highly produced synthesizers, strong build-ups, and a poppy, in your face chorus. In 2013 they released the single “The Rookie”, which followed in a similar fashion to “Erase”. The single contained gritty synthesizer leads, pumping bass lines, and a strong rhythmic drum beat.
In 2014 Dim Mak Records released The Chainsmokers’ breakthrough song “#Selfie”. Dim Mak Records was founded by DJ Steve Aoki and has been known for breaking several groups into the mainstream. Weeks after the group released “#Selfie” they were asked to sign on to the major record label Republic Records. The group originated “#Selfie” due to trying to capitalize off the pop culture trend that was becoming increasingly prevalent. The song was also considered by the band to be a joke, but the song immediately created a huge fan base for the band. The song has many pop culture references and has drawn comparisons to Sir Mix-A-Lot’s “Baby Got Back”, Baauer’s “Harlem Shake”, and Frank Zappa’s “Valley Girl”. The single did significantly well on the charts and reached the No. 1 position on the US Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. The video for the single also included cameos by Snoop Dogg and David Hasselhoff, which increased the popularity of the song.
In 2014 the group followed up “#Selfie” with the single “Kanye”, which features sirenXX. The song differs from the group’s previous releases, as it tends to be less aggressive in its presentation, although the song still contains strong build-ups and a highly catchy chorus. The song also seemed to be another ploy for the group to build off the pop culture of the time.

"But first let me take a ..." you already know the rest. And if you are like me then you're probably tired of hearing it. But whether you loved it or loathed it, The Chainsmokers' smash hit, Selfie, with the all-important # *hashtag* to boost, was, and still is an unstoppable force to be reckoned with after it was released earlier this year. Clocking up over 200 million YouTube views in just 6 months, you couldn't ignore it. The masterminds behind it? Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall. Two New York City based DJ's and producers who remixed indie bands before signing to Steve Aoki's label Dim Mak and a major deal with Republic Records. Since finding fame they’ve DJ’d at festivals around the world. ULTRA, HARD and Tomorrowland to name just a few. Pounding bass, flashing strobes and big bass drops were the order of the day at The Chainsmokers set at Tomorrowland. Upon dropping the follow-up to ‘#SELFIE’, cleverly named after the biggest artist in the world, ‘Kanye’, revelers were on each other’s shoulders bouncing up and down to the euphoric sing-a-long, sure to be a hit, chorus. The unique thing about a Chainsmokers set is that unlike other more generic EDM stars, they don’t mind switching things up a little, by chucking in a few of their older remixes of indie bands like Daughter and Two Door Cinema Club for good measure. It’s EDM with a difference.

Pretty awful all round unfortunately. First of all, far too much of the audience was too old for an EDM concert, above ages of 50. I was stunned at many of them turning up, a couple of aged ladies just standing still throughout the whole concert. Having been a bit shocked at seeing so many elders, I was even more shocked at the fact no one looked like they were having a good time. After having been to sensational and animated concerts at Steve Aoki last month and Galantis last year which were full of moshing and having fun, only a group of people I found nearer the front wanted to really get into it and have fun. I did not expect for 99% of the crowd to stand still and have miserable faces for the entirety of the show. Lastly, I was disappointed by the performance of The Chainsmokers. The drum guy did not suit the concert well, and the pace in the concert changed too much and they seemed to be focussed on cracking jokes. If they really were DJs, they’d have their set and play music throughout. Very bad. The technical issues at the beginning did not help either. Waste of money.

Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall, better known as the electro house duo The Chainsmokers have been working on their live show since 2012. However in 2014 they suddenly found themselves propelled up lineups and playing to larger and larger crowds thanks to the runaway success of their hit single '#Selfie'.
Making dance music reflecting social culture is not new for the boys, with the follow-up 'Kanye' being equally provocative. Despite not having a full length LP released to date, the band has plenty of material to keep the crowds dancing along to. They are known for having remixed music by some prolific indie names including Two Door Cinema Club, Daughter, Neon Trees and Bastille and the audience go wild for these alt-dance gems.
By the time they are ready to drop their infamous track, the whole crowd is completely surrendered to the energetic duo and leave them jumping as one to the heavy bass whilst chanting 'let me take a selfie'.

I always try to see the Chainsmokers live whenever I can. Like their previous concerts, their European tour 2018, was an incredible experience. Although the Chainsmokers are DJs, they deliver an all-encompassing performance with guitar playing, singing, piano playing, as well as the traditional DJing. They invite their audiences to get involved with what they are performing and interact with them often. In this last concert, the Chainsmokers previewed two new unreleased songs. They perform their own songs and others with mashups and remixes and this paired with the lighting effects, fire, confetti, sparklers and streamers etc. only build to an great overall experience. Drew and Alex (the Chainsmokers) are both charismatic guys and brilliant hosts. I would definitely recommend watching them live

Disappointed! Know what you are paying for. I have only followed them for the last year, so I know the songs you find on Spotify which I really like. I wasn't aware of their DJ background, so was disappointed when most of the concert was not them performing their songs, but doing what DJs do. Great mixes, and fantastic stage show, but I left disappointed. They have some great female vocals on some of their tracks, yet no female live vocals - only played recorded version. I paid to see live performances, not recordings.
Lot of people love them and their performance, and maybe if I was prepared to hear them DJ and play recorded vocals, I might have left feeling less disappointed.

this is definitely one of the best shows i've been to! Being both dj's and songwriters, they alternated between performing songs and epic djing. and each drop was so unique and creative, contrary to some djs today. I had a blast! Their energy was contagious and their skits and set design added so much to the show. It wasn't just playing music, it was putting on a show for their audience. Drew kept thanking us for being here and explaining how we were one of the best crowds on tour. I knew i was gonna have fun, but it surpassed my expectations. I will definitely be seeing them again! Plus, the opening acts and the pianist were great! and kudos to their drummer!

One of the best concerts i have ever been to. They have really stepped up their game with the effects, the instruments and of course the singing. Drew has gotten so much better. Everything about the concert was amazing. I recommend seeing a Chainsmokers concert to anyone with an interest for dance music and to people who just wants to have a good time. They give you an amazing vibe. Dont listen to a couple of their songs and judge them because even I can say that not all of their songs are good but when you see them live they really make up for it and they are getting better and better. You wont regret it.
