Andy King Is Throwing A Virtual Music Festival For Fyre’s Three Year Anniversary (And Charity)

And this one -- featuring What So Not, Chromeo and Clean Bandit -- will be anything but a disaster.

Andy King — the breakout ‘star’ of Netflix’s Fyre Festival documentary — is hosting a virtual music festival for charity, leveraging his notoriety as ‘that guy who almost sucked dick for water’ for a good cause.

In case you need a reminder, King provided one of the most memorable moments in Netflix’s Fyre documentary, as he recounted how founder and con-man Billy MacFarlane asked him to suck a Bahamas custom officer’s dick as a way to release impounded bottled Evian water for the island festival.

In the year since, he’s scored an Evian brand-promotion deal, came to Australia for BIGSOUND talks, and was recently in talks for a television show. It’s not bad for someone who worked quite high up on the festival, and was largely more concerned with PR and profit than the festival’s promises.

Now, he’s hosting Room Service Festival, an EDM-focused virtual music festival taking place this weekend. The line-up’s impressive too, boasting the likes of A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Channel Tres, Chromeo, Clean Bandit and Yungblud. Australia’s own Hayden James and Just A Gent are getting involved, too, as is What So Not, despite announcing a hiatus earlier this year.

King pops up in the trailer for the festival, answering a call — and of course, saying he’s down for the cause.

It’ll be held across Trap Nation and Chill Nation’s YouTube channels April 24-26, and is free to attend. Any donations will go towards Feeding America and Sweet Relief, a charity for musicians in need.
