After lining up residencies in Boston and Philadelphia, LCD Soundsystem have announced that they’re doing a series of shows in London this summer. Their Platinum Anniversary residency at the Brizton’s O2 Academy marks the 20th anniversary of the band’s first live shows in London. They take place on June 29 and July 1-3. 

The band recently served as musical guests on a John Mulaney–hosted episode of Saturday Night Live, performing “Thrills” and “Yr City’s a Sucker” from their debut album. In December, they released a holiday special starring Macaulay Culkin, Aparna Nancherla, and Eric Wareheim.
