The band will be touring throughout festival season.
Hot Chip have announced a full run of UK tour dates for October 2015 as they prepare to head out on their sold out European tour this May. The band will also be releasing their sixth studio album 'Why Make Sense?' next month.
Hot Chip hit the UK again in October 2015
Hot Chip will hit Glasgow on May 12th for the first date of their sold out Euro tour where they'll be supported by DJ Pete Fowler. Latest label mates Georgia will join them for the London date on May 14th, returning in October for the newly announced full UK run. Though this time their London date will be supported by Manchester's Lonelady.
As well as UK and Europe dates, Hot Chip will be crossing the pond to the US and Canada for a few more dates, including a bunch of festivals like Sasquatch, Governors Ball, Lollapalooza, Osheaga Festival and San Francisco's Outside Land. They'll also be joined by special guests Chk Chk Chk and Com Truise for their LA show at The Greek Theatre in August.
Not only will they enjoy a festival run across the Atlantic, but they have also been confirmed to appear at Glastonbury Festival on June 26th - and that's just the tip of the iceberg! They will also play unmissable shows at T In The Park, Spain's Sonar Festival, Denmark's Roskilde Fest, the Montreaux Jazz Festival and Paris' Rock En Seine. A very busy year for these electronic legends.
