Hot Chip is returning to the United States for a string of dates in support of “In Our Heads,” the well-received album the band released in June of last year.
The English indie-electro quintet will start their American journey at the Ultra Music Festival, the Coachella of dance music (later, in April, they’ll also perform at Coachella itself). But though they’re seeing quite a few bookings at dance festivals, Hot Chip‘s Alexis Taylor tells The Huffington Post the band isn’t too concerned about the fist-pumping audience.
“I think people know what to expect when they come to see Hot Chip,” he said in a phone interview from the band’s rehearsal space in London. “So we still get booked, but we may seem a bit more like a live band by comparison, whereas a few years back we were just doing our own thing and some other bands were doing something similar.”
