Three-time Grammy Award winner and global music icon Wyclef Jean will headline the afternoon of women and men’s snowboard finals day, Saturday, February 28, delivering a high-energy performance that will cap off an unforgettable day of competition and celebration at the bottom of the halfpipe. Jean is a multi-platinum artist, producer, and founding member of The Fugees, best known for global hits including “Gone Till November,” “Hips Don’t Lie,” “911,” “No Woman, No Cry,” and “Ready or Not.”
Bringing energy to the slopes during the halftime performance earlier in the day is NEIL FRANCES Presents CLUB NF, the club-forward alter ego of Los Angeles-based duo Jordan Feller and Marc Gilfry. Conceived as a high-BPM counterpart to NEIL FRANCES’ soulful, genre-blending sound, CLUB NF fully embraces dance music, rave culture, and seamless, hybrid-live performance. The project reimagines the duo’s catalog while weaving in outside records, channeling the shape-shifting spirit of acts like LCD Soundsystem, Soulwax, and The Chemical Brothers. Known for transforming live spaces into fluid, high-energy environments, CLUB NF will deliver a dynamic set at Buttermilk, turning the mountain into a dancefloor.
Event Three at Buttermilk will feature the world’s top snowboarders competing at the highest level, alongside immersive fan experiences and live entertainment, reinforcing The Snow League’s mission to elevate winter sports culture on a global stage.
The Snow League is available for viewing in more than 175 countries worldwide, through an unprecedented lineup of television, streaming, and digital media partners spanning six continents, inviting fans everywhere to experience the action live. The complete global listings are available here.
The music that three time Grammy Award winning and Golden Globe and Emmy nominated Wyclef Jean has written, performed, and produced — both as a solo superstar and as founder and guiding member of the Fugees – has been a consistently powerful, pop cultural force for over two decades. In 1996, the Fugees released their monumental album The Score. Since then, Wyclef has released eight albums as a solo artist that have sold nearly nine million copies worldwide, including his 1997 debut The Carnival.
2020 found Wyclef venturing into the podcast industry as the host of RunThatBack, a one of a kind weekly show for music lovers of any type, where Wyclef interviews heavy hitters from all walks of life, from music, to sports, politics, and beyond. That same year, he teamed up with Google to create a jingle for their #BlackOwnedFriday campaign to promote and support shopping black-owned businesses for Black Friday during the holiday season. This campaign won a Webby Award, and was nominated for a Clio Award, among others.
In 2021 Wyclef co-founded SodoMoodLab, a jingle and scoring company. In his most recent project with Sodo, Wyclef stepped in as composer for seasons four, five, and six of Showtime’s The Chi, a show created by screenwriter and actress Lena Waithe. In August 2023, Wyclef hosted the annual Caribbean Music Awards, which took place in Brooklyn, New York. Most recently, Wyclef became Co-Chair of the Music Advisory Board of Harlem Festival of Culture, an annual New York City festival which celebrates Black music, culture, and pride.
In 2023, Wyclef partnered with leading retirement planning company TIAA to release “Paper Right,” featuring Pusha T, Lola Brooke, Capella Grey, and Flau’jae. The TIAA x Wyclef campaign raises awareness among America’s youth on the importance of preparing for their future through financial independence, especially the 54% of African Americans who may not have enough funds to retire comfortably. As part of this partnership, all proceeds from “Paper Right” streams are being donated directly to the non-profit organization First Generation Investors, an organization dedicated to empowering underserved high school students with investing literacy.
About NEIL FRANCES Presents CLUB NF
CLUB NF is the club-forward alter ego of NEIL FRANCES, created as a complementary outlet to their soulful electro-indie work by fully embracing dance music, rave culture, and higher-BPM, seamless live sets. Following NEIL FRANCES’ breakout touring years, the duo refined CLUB NF into a fluid, hybrid-live performance that reinterprets their catalog while weaving in outside records, inspired by shape-shifting acts like LCD Soundsystem, Soulwax, and The Chemical Brothers. Throughout 2025, CLUB NF toured extensively across Austin, New York City, Los Angeles, Barcelona, Berlin, Paris, and Romania, with standout festival appearances at Portola Festival, Art With Me, and Vaivén Festival, cementing the project as a distinct and evolving live experience as it continues to expand into 2026.
