THE MARTINEZ BROTHERS
VISION returns to Fabrique Milano with one of the most eagerly awaited events of the autumn season: The Martinez Brothers will headline on Friday, October 16, 2026, bringing to Milan two of the most influential figures in the global House scene. Following September’s event, which saw Chris Stassy take centre stage during Milan Fashion Week, VISION returns in October with another carefully curated line-up.
Chris and Stevie Martinez grew up in the Bronx, surrounded by salsa records, gospel music and New York’s underground scene. Their father, a pastor, introduced them to music and musical instruments from an early age: Chris began playing drums, while Stevie took up bass and keyboards in the local church band. Still teenagers, they started going to New York clubs and eventually found themselves playing at some of the city’s most important venues, even before they were old enough to enter them as customers. In 2015, Nile Rodgers chose them to collaborate on “I’ll Be There”, the first single by Chic in 23 years. The Martinez Brothers have also made their mark in the fashion world: Riccardo Tisci selected them to perform at Givenchy shows, while they have collaborated with Fendi and Louis Vuitton and also played at Dua Lipa’s Met Gala afterparty.
The Martinez Brothers arrive at Fabrique for VISION’s second event of the season, further strengthening the Milan series’ reputation for bringing some of the most important names in international electronic music to the city.
