Two Friends

From the back row of middle school history class to sold-out nights at Madison Square Garden, lifelong friends Matt Halper and Eli Sones have turned Two Friends into a full-blown movement. Known for songs like “Way It Was” with Quinn XCII and “If Only I” with Loud Luxury & Bebe Rexha, the pair has built a sound made for massive stages and everyday playlists. In 2026, Two Friends opened a new chapter with Big Boots, an EP bringing their signature dance sound into the world of country and featuring collaborations with Dustin Lynch, Tyler Braden, Lindsey Stirling and more. Their award-winning Big Bootie Mix series has become a cultural phenomenon, with each installment amassing millions of streams and soundtracking pre-games, road trips and late nights. In 2022, that world expanded into Big Bootie Land, bringing the premiere of new mixes to different cities each year, followed by the launch of its country counterpart, Big Boots Land. Two Friends have headlined Madison Square Garden, Red Rocks and The Kia Forum, played festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo, and held residencies at Wynn’s XS and Encore Beach Club and LIV Miami. As their community grows worldwide, one thing remains true: no matter how far they go, they’ll always just be Two Friends.
