LCD Soundsystem is set to make their highly anticipated return to the UK with an eight-night residency at London's iconic O2 Academy Brixton, scheduled for June 12-15 and June 19-22, 2025, where fans can experience their electrifying fusion of dance-rock and electronic beats that has captivated audiences worldwide.
O2 Academy Brixton Residency
The eight-night residency will take place at the renowned O2 Academy Brixton, with performances running Thursday through Sunday for two consecutive weeks. Doors open at 7:00 PM for most shows, with Sunday performances starting earlier at 5:00 PM with a 9:00 PM curfew. This extended stay marks an expansion from the band's previous sold-out six-night residency at the same venue in 2022.
Support acts have been carefully curated for the residency, with alt-pop duo Friedberg warming up the crowd for the first four nights (June 12-15), while the electronic-indie outfit Working Men's Club will support the second run of shows (June 19-22). Tickets for this highly anticipated event went on general sale on March 7th, 2025, following mysterious projections spotted around Shoreditch featuring James Murphy's DFA Records logo with the words "You are here (again)" that hinted at the band's return.
Eight-Night Concert Series
The eight-night concert series represents LCD Soundsystem's most extensive UK residency to date, building on the success of their previous six-night run at the same venue in 2022. Following acclaimed performances at Glastonbury and All Points East in 2024, where The Times awarded their Pyramid Stage show a 5-star review calling it "the first truly great show of Glastonbury 2024", the band continues to cement their reputation for electrifying live performances.
Both Sunday shows (June 15 and 22) will run on earlier schedules from 5-9pm, accommodating fans who prefer daytime events, which one Reddit user praised as "a perfect fit for someone my age". The residency adds to LCD Soundsystem's 2025 tour schedule, which includes appearances at We Love Green festival in Paris on June 8 and various North American dates, with speculation continuing about a potential new album following their October 2024 release of "X-Ray Eyes".
Support Acts: Friedberg & Working Men's Club
The residency features two dynamic support acts carefully selected to complement LCD Soundsystem's electronic-infused sound. For the first four nights (June 12-15), alt-pop duo Friedberg will take the stage, bringing their "infectious energy and genre-defying sound" to warm up the Brixton audience. The second week's performances (June 19-22) will showcase Working Men's Club, who will deliver their "unique blend of indie and electronic sounds" to set the tone before LCD Soundsystem's headline set.
Both support acts reflect LCD Soundsystem's commitment to showcasing innovative artists within the electronic and alternative music scenes. Fans planning their attendance might consider these supporting acts when choosing which nights to attend, as noted by Reddit users discussing which shows might offer the most complete experience. All performances maintain the same door times regardless of support act, with 7:00 PM openings for Thursday through Saturday shows and 5:00 PM for Sunday performances.
