​Autechre announce first North America tour in over a decade

Rochdale duo Autechre are heading on a North American tour this autumn, their first in more than a decade.

The duo are set to embark on a 25-date tour across both the UK and North America in October across two months, where they’ll be joined by legendary techno artist Mark Broom.

Following a previously announced run of shows across Europe due to take place in August, Autechre will set sail for the US, kicking off the tour at Denver’s Gothic Theatre on October 1.

From there, they’ll make 19 stops across North America, heading to cities including Vancouver, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, New York, Toronto, Mexico City, Boston, and more.

The North American tour will conclude on October 28 at Portsmouth’s 3S, followed by a swift return to the UK where they’ll play six dates throughout November.

Over in the UK, Autechre will stop at Glasgow’s SWG3, Newcastle’s Digital, Leeds’ Project House, Brighton’s Chalk, Bristol’s Prospect, and a final show at Belfast’s Mandela Hall on November 7.

Autechre’s last North American tour took place in 2015, when they headed on an 18-stop run of shows alongside Cygnus and Rob Hall.

In November, Autechre released 12 new live recordings from their sets spanning 2023 - 2024, titled AE_LIVE 2022. The sets were recorded throughout a string of shows across Europe, as well as two stops in Australia.
