The xx announce support acts for Brixton gigs

The xx have announced an all-star bill of support acts and after-parties for the Brixton Academy residency of their 2017 tour.

The run of shows, titled ‘Night + Day‘, is a series that begun back in 2013 with a run of specially curated gigs in Lisbon, Berlin and London. Now in support of their acclaimed new album ‘I See You‘, they’ve applied the same principles to their seven London shows – where they’ll be joined by the likes of Sampha, Kelela, Floating Points, Cat Power and Savages’ singer Jehnny Beth.

In addition, their very own Jamie xx will headline and host an all day party (2:00 pm-8:00 pm) at the O2 Academy Brixton on Sunday 12th March 2017.

A pre-sale begins on Wednesday 15th February at 10:00 am before going on general sale from 9:00 am on Friday 17th February.

While the shows are sold out, fans can swap their tickets for a different night if they prefer the line-up over at a special page on Twickets.
