These shows are the first time Travis will perform live with a DJ since DJ AM passed in August. He had recently told MTV News that he’d always wanted to work with A-Trak.  Travis & A-Trak recently chatted with MTV about their collaboration.

“I had met A-Trak last year at Coachella, but I had seen a set of his at Avalon in Los Angeles maybe four years ago, with AM,” Barker told MTV News. “He was a guy who I always wanted to work with in some way. So I gave him a call.”

“When Travis hollered, I was definitely flattered. We started by jamming once, back in the fall, just came over to the studio, and we did, like, one hour of jamming, which we thought was maybe a half an hour,” A-Trak added. “I just started playing records and scratching, and he was playing on top, and “ it went really, really naturally
” . It was very fluid. And we stopped and looked at the watch, and it was like, ‘Oh, we’ve been playing for an hour and didn’t even realize it.’ And I think that solidified for both of us in our minds that we could do this pretty easily.”

Here’s some video from the MTV interview.
