Jennie Joins Tame Impala for First Live Performance of 'Dracula' Remix at TD Garden

The surprise duet capped a viral remix's climb into the Hot 100 top five, showing how staged guest moments can turn streaming hits into arena spectacles.

Overview

  • Tame Impala brought BLACKPINK member Jennie onstage during their July 29 show at Boston’s TD Garden for the first time to perform the official "Dracula (Remix)" together.
  • The performance featured red lighting, bursts of red confetti and an onstage compliment from frontman Kevin Parker, who told Jennie, "You’re a fucking legend."
  • The remix has been a commercial breakout, reaching the top five on the Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the Billboard Global 200 while earning nearly a billion global on-demand audio streams.
  • The Boston appearance followed other high-profile guest moments on the current North American arena tour, including opener Djo (Joe Keery) joining for "Loser," and continues a pattern of surprise collaborations on the run.
  • The live debut underlines a wider trend in which viral tracks driven by TikTok and streaming—the remix has powered over a million TikTok videos—are amplified by arena staging and cross-genre pairings that boost visibility for both artists.
