The album is due to arrive on March 17, with the accompanying North American tour kicking off in San Jose in early April. From there, the hyperpop duo – made up of Laura Les and Dylan Brady – will embark on an additional 29 dates throughout the region, all of which will be opened by Machine Girl.
100 gecs’ tour will conclude on May 21, and includes stops in Las Vegas, Chicago, Los Angeles and Washington, the last of which will be co-headlined by Swedish singer-songwriter Fever Ray. The North American dates will follow 100 gecs’ Australian and New Zealand tour, which includes festival appearances and two headline shows.
Pre-sale tickets to 100 gecs’ tour will be available from January 26 here. See the full list of North American tour dates below:
‘10,000 gecs’ was announced last month, and coincided with the duo’s surprise EP ‘Snake Eyes’. That three-track project featured Skrillex, and marked 100 gecs’ first EP since their self-titled album was released in 2016. 100 gecs’ upcoming album, meanwhile, will include previously released singles ‘mememe’ and ‘Doritos & Fritos’.
Speaking of their discography in a 2020 interview with NME, Les said: “People think that we’ve staked our entire career on the fact that we can be ironic really well… We’re not joking all the time… sometimes. A little bit. We’re having fun – we’re not fucking being ironic.”
