Fred again.. just kicked off his buzzy 10 shows in 10 weeks in 10 cities run, a peripatetic endeavor happening as part of the release of his USB002 project.
The English producer is releasing one song from USB002 in tandem with each week’s show, with UBS002 itself being an an evolution of USB001, which collected Fred hits including “Jungle,” “Baby Again” with Skrillex and Four Tet, “Lights Out” with Romy and Haai, “Rumble” with Skrillex and “Turn On The Lights Again..” with Swedish House Mafia and Future.
USB002 thus far promises to be as star-studded, with the first song of the project being a collab with Aussie rock band Amyl and the Sniffers. The song dropped on Oct. 3, the same day as the start of the 10-week run, which began with a packed night in Glasgow, Scotland.
Fred again.. later announced on social media that the next 10 shows in 10 weeks performance will happen Oct. 10 in the Belgian capital of Brussels. Upon announcing this show, Fred gave a hint at where the rest of the shows might happen, noting that this Brussels show will be “the most northern show we’re doing in *mainland* Europe… I chose my wording verrrry delicately there.”
The tour’s production is an installation by Dutch artist and composer Boris Acket, who contributed one of his billowing, parachute type works to the run.
See photos from each week’s show below, with this story updating after every performance for the next nine weeks.
