Two Friends to Headline Boston College’s Mile 21 Concert for Marathon Monday

Boston College is gearing up for its annual Marathon Monday celebrations, and this year’s festivities feature a high-energy musical addition. The DJ duo Two Friends is set to perform at the Mile 21 Concert, marking their first appearance at BC.

Event Details and Schedule

The Mile 21 Concert takes place on April 20. According to an announcement sent to the student body, Two Friends will take the stage at 10 a.m. The event is held in the Mod Lot and serves as the culmination of the Division of Student Affairs’ Marathon Monday festivities [1].

The day’s programming begins early, with the Mile 21 Breakfast Concert Kick off scheduled from 7:00 a.m. To 9:30 a.m. [2].

Who are Two Friends?

Two Friends are a popular DJ duo who first gained significant traction on SoundCloud through their “Large Bootie Mixes.” They’ve since evolved into a global act with 1.4 million monthly listeners on Spotify [1].

Their discography includes several hit singles and collaborations:

• Notable Tracks: “Emily,” “Last Day (Dualities Remix),” and “If Only I (Feat. Bebe Rexha).”
• Recent Work: A new single with Chris Lane titled “Under the Table.”

The duo also brings recent festival experience to the Mod Lot, having performed at Lollapalooza in Chicago in 2025 [1].

A Shift in Musical Direction
