SBTRKT IN CONCERT:
Ever since the drop of his self-titled 2011 debut album, London-based producer SBTRKT has been synonymous with next-level, genre-devouring electronic music. His wide-ranging compositions encompass everything from R&B, and dubstep to bass music and house, making for an eclectic concert experience that treats fans to the farthest reaches of sonic possibility. Taking the stage in their signature tribal masks, SBTRKT and longtime vocal collaborator Sampha round out their sound with real drums and synthesizers, ensuring epic tracks like "War Drums" and "Wildfire" are even more massive live. In 2014 SBTRKT released his hotly anticipated sophomore album Wonder Where We Land to critical acclaim, generating significant buzz among ticket buyers for his upcoming tour dates.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
London-based SBTRKT, aka Aaron Jerome, got his start as a DJ in the city's underground club scene before making a name for himself as a talented remix artist. In 2009 he made his debut with the Musik Lace EP, an impressive first effort that established him as a potent new force in electronic music and hinted at big things to come. Breakthrough success followed in 2011 with his self-titled debut LP, a critical smash that was named one of the best albums of the year by both Pitchfork and NME. He followed the release with extensive touring and a steady stream of popular remixes, as well as the stellar single "Wildfire", a collaboration with Drake and Yukimi Nagano of Little Dragon. In 2014 he released a trio of EPs -- Transitions I, II, and III -- before dropping his sophomore album Wonder Where We Land. The record featured an impressive roster of guest stars including Jessie Ware, A$AP Ferg, and Ezra Koenig, earning rave reviews from critics and building excitement among fans for his upcoming shows.
