Chemical Brothers Announce London Shows

added 06 July 2007 at 10.56

Dance music's legendary live act The Chemical Brothers have announced two headline London shows this winter.

The gigs take place at Brixton Academy on Thursday December 13 with a special late show on Friday December 14.

Tickets go on-sale at 9am this Monday 9th July from the XFM Xchange on 0871 222 1049 or online by clicking here.

Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons - who just recently headlined Glastonbury Festival in 2007 on The Other Stage - are also due to headline Creamfields in Liverpool on August 25 and Bestival on the Isle of Wight on September 7.

The dates support the release of the electronic duo's sixth studio album 'We Are The Night' on July 2 which is heavily collaborated with musical acts such as Willy Mason ('Battle Scars'), Klaxons ('All Rights Reversed') and Midlake ('The Pills Won't Help You Now')

It follows 2005's 'Push The Button', which featured the Grammy Award winning single 'Galvanize', and included collaborations with Tim Burgess, Kele Okereke and Q-Tip.

Music from the London pair will also feature in the film adaptation of Irvine Welsh's best selling novel 'Ecstasy: Three Tales Of Chemical Romance' which is due for release later this year.
