LA beatsmith Flying Lotus hits Manchester Academy on April 30th, followed by Brixton on May 1st, bringing his ground-breaking live show to the country for the second time this year.

Widely revered as one of the world's most innovative and ground-breaking artists, Flying Lotus has in the past eight years gone from unheralded newcomer to global phenomenon, with his latest album You're Dead! the latest in a string of adored releases from the California native. 

Just announced though is who will be joining the electronic jazz wizard for his UK tour. Seattle based experimental hip hop duo Shabazz Palaces bring their off kilter, noxious beats to the fore, with the smooth, funk laden presence of celebrated DJ Kutmah rounding off the superb line up. Check him out in The Boiler Room above to see why we're particularly excited about his set.
