The TailGOAT Presents Two Friends
A tradition unlike any other returns to Baltimore for the 2026 season!
On
Monday night, November 16th,
Two Friends make their highly anticipated return to
The TailGOAT for what promises to be another electrifying night under the lights.
For a historic fifth visit to Charm City, Matt and Eli are back to headline the biggest pregame party in football, delivering the high-energy performance that has become a TailGOAT tradition.
Year after year, they’ve helped create some of the most unforgettable moments in the city’s history — and this year will be no different.
About Two Friends
From the back row of Mr. Castanares’ middle school history class to sold-out nights at Madison Square Garden, lifelong companions
Matt Halper and
Eli Sones have turned
Two Friends into a full-blown movement.
Known for their infectious songs like
Way It Was with Quinn XCII,
If Only I with Loud Luxury and Bebe Rexha, and their crossover country-dance smash
More Than Yesterday with Russell Dickerson, the pair delivers feel-good anthems built for both massive stages and everyday playlists.
Their viral remixes of The Killers’
Mr. Brightside, Blink-182’s
I Miss You, and more continue to turn familiar favorites into dancefloor anthems.
Their
Big Bootie Mix series has become an award-winning cultural phenomenon, with each installment amassing millions of streams and serving as a generational soundtrack for pregames, road trips, and late nights.
In 2022, that world expanded into
Big Bootie Land, a citywide takeover bringing the premiere of new mixes to different cities each year, returning home to Chicago in 2026.
On stage, Matt and Eli are unmatched, whether headlining Red Rocks or The Forum, closing out dance stages at major festivals such as Lollapalooza, Coachella, and Bonnaroo, or throwing down at their Vegas residencies at Wynn XS and Encore Beach Club and Miami residency at LIV.
Two Friends isn’t just a name — it’s a lifestyle.
