Basement Jaxx Briefly Touring U.S. for First Time in 10 Years

Basement Jaxx will be bringing its live show to the United States for the first time in nearly ten years but chances to catch the British electronic act in action will be slim. The group will play two DJ sets and three shows featuring the full 12-piece band—in Los Angeles, Washington D.C. and New York City.

Those who don't mind missing the full live experience can try to catch Jaxx at its DJ set gigs at the Public Works in San Francisco or at Beta in Denver. The best bet to land a seat will be at the New York show, where the band will take part in the Central Park Summerstage program, which will allow for a much larger audience (and is free of charge to boot).

Bassment Jaxx, founded around the duo of Felix Buxton and Simon Ratcliffe, is another fine electronic act that debuted on the XL label, blending house with a more alternative rock vibe.
