Two Friends Deliver an Unforgettable Lollapalooza Set

With Surprise Guests, Song Premieres, and a 500-Drone Finale 

Announce Big Bootie Land Vol.27 for May 16th

Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island in Chicago 

Producer/DJ duo Two Friends continued their performance-packed summer with an unforgettable set headlining the Perry’s Stage at Lollapalooza on Saturday, August 2nd. The seemingly unending sea of spectators was met with the duo rolling into Lollapalooza with a full drumline, a blazing horn section, and their saxophonist in tow—setting the vibe and stealing the scene.

Bringing unrelenting energy, the duo treated fans to a performance of their most recent release, “No One Else” and were joined onstage by the song’s featured rising pop artist Corbyn Besson. Intertwined with remixes and original tracks that have made the duo a must-see at festivals across the country, Two Friends turned up the momentum with a surprise premiere of their unreleased original song “Waiting for You” featuring powerhouse vocalist Natalie Jane.

As a grand finale to the momentous performance, a 500-drone show graced the skies of Grant Park, including an impressive 100 pyro drones. During the duo’s final moments on stage, the drones aligned to spell out “BIG BOOTIE LAND 5/16/2026”, announcing the return of Two Friends’ iconic annual Big Bootie Land to Chicago at the Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island. 

Riding on the momentum of their adrenaline-charged festival set, Two Friends played a sold-out official Lollapalooza aftershow at Sound Bar.  

Earlier this summer, Two Friends premiered their Big Bootie Mix, Vol. 26, at Big Bootie Land Seattle. A sold-out night filled with never-before-heard beats, impressive pyrotechnics, live saxophone, and nonstop dancing, the energy at WAMU Theater was unmatched. Their electrifying stage presence and signature mashup style drew fans from around the globe. 

This past May, Two Friends kicked off their summer of live shows with a high-octane performance at the Indy 500. Among this year’s live performances, Two Friends will perform a massive outdoor headline show at Central Park’s SummerStage in New York City on September 12th and perform a special Bass Set at Breakaway Music Festival on September 13th. Two Friends can also be seen at their long-standing residences at Wynn’s XS Nightclub and Encore Beach club in Las Vegas and LIV Nightclub in Miami. Their ability to seamlessly mix nostalgic hits with modern drops has become a defining trait of their musical style. Earlier this year, the pair released the first-ever official remix of Neil Diamond’s iconic hit “Sweet Caroline.”

$4 Unbeatable Meal Deal – Checkers + GloRilla

Checkers & Rally’s Teams Up with Hip-Hop Star GloRilla for a Fearlessly Original Flavor Collab: Introducing GloRilla’s $4 Unbeatable Meal Deal

Checkers & Rally’s, home of Famous Seasoned Fries and bold, crave-worthy flavor, is turning up the volume on value with a new celebrity collaboration that’s as fearless as it is flavorful. Introducing GloRilla’s $4 Unbeatable Meal Deal—a bold remix of their best-in-class value meal, now backed by Grammy-nominated hip-hop artist and former Checkers employee, GloRilla.

GloRilla—born Gloria Hallelujah Woods—is a Memphis-born music icon whose breakout sound and fierce individuality embody Checkers & Rally’s new Fearlessly Original brand positioning. And for Glo, this partnership hits home—literally. Before dominating the Billboard charts and winning awards like Best Breakthrough Hip Hop Artist at the BET Hip Hop Awards and Hip-Hop Artist of the Year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, GloRilla once worked at a Checkers in Memphis, famously telling coworkers, “One day I’m going to be famous.” Now she’s bringing that full-circle moment back to the drive-thru.

“Checkers is where I got my start, and now I’ve got a meal deal with my name on it,” said GloRilla. “Life comes with ups and downs, but this moment means a lot to me. I’m grateful to Checkers & Rally’s for riding with me—and trust, it’s all the flavor and all the fire, for just four bucks.”

GloRilla’s $4 Unbeatable Meal Deal delivers unbeatable value with real flavor and major flex appeal. Fans can choose from three craveable sandwiches—the Cheese Double (featuring over a ¼ lb of beef), the Spicy Chicken Sandwich, or the exclusive, limited-time Glo’s BBQ Jacked Burger, made with 100% beef, Pepper Jack cheese, sweet & smoky BBQ sauce, and seasoned grilled onions on a toasted bun. The meal is rounded out with a soft drink, Checkers & Rally’s iconic Famous Seasoned Fries, and a warm, cinnamon-sugar dusted apple pie.

“This is the boldest meal deal in fast food,” said Scott Johnson, Chief Marketing Officer of Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, Inc. “GloRilla brings her Fearlessly Original spirit to everything she touches, and this collaboration celebrates her roots, our shared commitment to flavor, and the kind of value that turns heads and fills stomachs.”

In addition to the $4 meal deal, Checkers & Rally’s is dropping two more “Glo-inspired” burgers. Starting with Glo Da P’s BBQ Double—a mouthwatering new sandwich made with two 100% beef hamburger patties, American cheese, dill pickles, sweet & smoky BBQ sauce and mayo, served between two thick slices of garlic Texas toast.

Want even more flavor? Try Big Glo’s BBQ Buford, a powerhouse of a sandwich stacked with two large 100% beef hamburger patties, Fry-Seasoned Onion Fries, Pepper Jack cheese, American cheese, grilled onions, dill pickles, mayo, and BBQ sauce, also served on thick-cut garlic Texas toast.

Whether balling on a budget, craving something new, or just hungry for a meal with personality, GloRilla’s $4 Unbeatable Meal Deal—and the two all-new Glo burgers—bring big flavor, great value and zero compromises—only at Checkers & Rally’s.
