Calvin Harris
The Scottish producer who became the highest-paid DJ in the world — a Grammy winner with more Spotify streams than almost any other electronic artist alive.
Who is Calvin Harris?
The full story of Calvin Harris's rise, sound and signature catalogue.
Calvin Harris — born Adam Richard Wiles in Dumfries, Scotland — is one of the most commercially dominant DJs and producers of the streaming era. A Grammy winner, multi-year highest-paid DJ in the world per Forbes, and the architect of dozens of UK and US #1 singles, Calvin Harris has built a catalog of pop-house anthems few artists can match.
After his 2007 debut I Created Disco hinted at his potential, Calvin Harris went stratospheric with "We Found Love" featuring Rihanna in 2011 — a global #1 that defined an entire era of pop-house crossover. The 2014 album Motion spawned "Summer" and "Outside," and the 2017 Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 reinvented him as a funk and disco producer.
"One Kiss" with Dua Lipa became the song of summer 2018, and Calvin Harris's Las Vegas residencies at Wynn's XS and Encore Beach Club remain among the highest-grossing in the city. Explore more pop-house artists in the DJ directory, or visit his official site.
