Get ready to dance, because Manchester’s The Whip is soon headed your way. Hot on the heels of the release of their U.S. debut, X Marks the Destination (March 3rd via Razor & Tie), the electro rockers have announced plans for an extensive North American tour that will have “Trash”, “Fire”, and all the other sounds the 14-track effort resonating just about everywhere.
The tour will kickoff at South by Southwest with a DJ set at Austin’s 508 House and a showcase at La Zona Rona with Pendulum, Kaskade, The Crystal Method, and Diesel Boy. A stop at Miami’s Ultra Music Festival flows before The Whip joins up with fellow Englishmen Late of the Pier and Grammy-nominated Deadmau5 for a series of club shows.
