Klaxons Cancel Festival Appearances To Focus On New Album
Group cancel Spain’s Bilbao BBK Live festival to record.
Klaxons have cancelled all their scheduled summer festivals appearances, deciding instead to focus on recording.
The band were set to play Spain’s Bilbao BBK Live festival in July and were thought to have planned other festival slots.
It’s been a while since we’ve heard from the former future-of-music, but the electronic fourpiece are rumoured to be working with James Murphy and The Chemical Brothers on a forthcoming record.
This is also not the first time the group have pulled out of festival shows. Lats year Klaxons cancelled their US and Canadian tours, as well as an appearance at Coachella.
The official line back then was a complete mystery ‘due to unforeseen circumstances’.
