UK electropop group Hot Chip have announced a run of Australian tour dates for early 2013 on the back of their appearance on the Field Day and Falls Festival lineups over this new year. They’ll be playing East Coast shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
Having released their new album In Our Heads earlier this year, it’s just been a question on when exactly they’ll visit our shores once again, with band member Joe Goddard talking up shows for some time this year while he was out here for Stereosonic 2011 under his side project 2 Bears.
Their latest album In Our Heads, is the follow-up to their highly successful 2010 album One Life Stand, and has 11 tracks in total. Spawning singles Night & Day, How Do You Do?, Don’t Deny Your Heart and Flutes, for which they released a nausea-inducing clip.
In news that will thrill their legion of devoted fans, Hot Chip has announced the release of an expanded edition of In Our Heads. A new deluxe version of the album to be released in Australia on November 16. It will come with an extra disc/digital bundle featuring remixes from Major Lazer, Optimo, Daphni and Moretime, rare tracks and previously unheard demos.
Tickets will go on sale Monday, 29th October at 9am local time. World’s End Press will support them on all dates.
