Extending a New York-area tradition since 2017, LCD Soundsystem will be back in action this winter with another residency, this time comprising 12 shows across three weekends at Knockdown Center in Maspeth, Queens. Dates for the Bowery Presents-produced run begin Nov. 20 and conclude Dec. 13.
Although the James Murphy-led group has previously anchored its residency at Brooklyn Steel, this year’s edition will be held only at Knockdown Center – a change inaugurated last year. It will also take full advantage of the unique Knockdown Center space with live opening acts, nightly afterparties with special guest DJs, a DFA Records swap meet and even an on-site take on Murphy’s Four Horsemen wine bar.
Tickets go on sale Sept. 19. Click here for more information.
Before the residency, LCD will visit New Haven. Ct., tonight (Sept. 12), the Sea.Hear.Now festival in Asbury Park, N.J., tomorrow and the Portolo festival in San Francisco on Sept. 20. The group will also open for Pulp on Sept. 25-26 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles and stage a New Year’s Eve run on Dec. 30-31 and Jan. 1 in Aspen, Co.
As for the long-awaited follow-up to 2017’s American Dream, LCD has been working on and off for the past several years at Murphy’s New York studio but few concrete details have emerged.
