Grimes announces U.K. tour including London Brixton Academy date
Grimes has announced a series of European and U.K. dates for early 2016 ahead of her long-awaited next record.
Grimes, aka Claire Boucher, recently detailed a run of North American shows, with the promise of dates this side of the pond "soon" - she's made good on her word, and we can now get excited about February and March 2016.
The tour will feature HANA as principal support, and is described as a "uniquely immersive live experience".
Upon announcing her North American shows, Grimes promised new music, so we should expect to hear some new noises from the vaunted producer in the coming weeks.
As well as the next Grimes record set to appear in the coming months, Boucher's been hard at work on founding artist co-op Eerie Organisation, with the first release imminent - Nicole Dollanganger's Natural Born Losers.
Ticket information for Boucher's forthcoming shows can be found on her website. A pre-sale begins Wednesday 7 October via DICE.
