Grammy-nominated British band Hot Chip are back in North America in support of their fifth album In Our Heads, which was released in June. Joining the band on their US dates is guest drummer Jim Orbis from the Brooklyn band, Holy Ghost! As a last minute addition, Jim Orbis has quickly learned the whole set just in time to kick off the tour in Minneapolis on July 13th.



For fans who cannot attend, Celebrate Brooklyn! has partnered with NPR to stream live audio and video from the sold-out Prospect Park Bandshell show on July 18th at http://www.npr.org/event/music/156633214/hot-chip-in-concert.



Hot Chip are also playing a second night in New York City at Terminal 5 with support from special guests Chromatics on July 20th.  Tickets are still available here<http://www.terminal5nyc.com/event/131181>.



NPR describes In Our Heads, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Albums chart, as their “most expansive, universal album”. The collective talents of Hot Chip’s Joe Goddard, Alexis Taylor, Felix Martin, Al Doyle and Owen Clarke have provided a consistently stellar output which continues to evolve with a deceptive effortlessness. While their lexicon of influences includes a diverse mix of soul, R&B, gospel, Detroit House, disco and funk, Hot Chip have created a uniquely identifiable sound that positions themselves as the world’s most talented electro- romantics.



The live video presentation of Hot Chip at Celebrate Brooklyn! is produced by Brooklyn Independent Television (BIT). The concert will be also run at later date as part of Live from Celebrate Brooklyn!, BIT’s series showing some of the most memorable concerts in the festival’s nearly 35-year history.
