On April 28, Chase And Status will embark on a live tour to coincide with the May release of their first single from their second album, the follow up to ‘More Than A Lot’.
Chase And Status’ first live show was at Radio 1’s Big Weekend last year. This was followed by some major summer festival slots at the likes of Glastonbury, Reading & Leeds, Bestival, Global Gathering and Creamfields. The live band features MC Rage, and Andy Gangadeen on drums.
In the past 12 months their production work includes some remix work for Jay Z and The Prodigy’s recent comeback, collaborations with Snoop Dogg and more recently, Chase And Status worked on Rihanna’s album ‘Rated R‘.
The duo say of the tour – “We’re really looking forward to getting out on the road and testing out our new material with our live band. I think people are expecting the new album to be full of big American featured artists, but in fact we’ve decided to keep it UK, for the most part. We just think there’s more than enough talent in the UK for us to work with, to help create what we hope will be a really exciting record…”
