try this

$string = "example.com/event/123/Kinda Don't Care2 Feat. Jaba/Country Music (1990)";

    // remove all non alphanumeric characters except spaces
    $clean =  preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9\s]/', '', strtolower($html)); 

    // replace one or multiple spaces into single dash (-)
    $clean =  preg_replace('!\s+!', '-', $clean); 

    echo $clean;
