MAJOR LAZER Tickets

Major Lazer tickets for the UK dates of their 'Free The Universe' Tour are on sale now on Aloud.

Following a sold out headline tour last April, MAJOR LAZER will headline four UK dates this year as part of the Free The Universe World Tour.

After releasing their landmark LP 'Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do' in 2009, Major Lazer (Diplo and Switch) have toured the world extensively selling out shows and performing at some of music’s major festivals.

In 2010 Major Lazer released 'Lazerproof', a free download mixtape with pop Sensation La Roux, and Lazers Never Die, an EP featuring two new tracks and three remixes, including one by Thom Yorke. Undoubtedly, one of the foremost breakthroughs for Major Lazer during that time was the production collaboration with Beyonce on her massive hit “Run the World (Girls)”, which sampled their track “Pon de Floor”.

As 2011 turned to 2012, Switch determined it best to pursue his own path, leaving Diplo in full control of Major Lazer. Now, as the sole executive producer of Major Lazer, Diplo continues to spearhead the current dancehall revival movement with the upcoming release Free The Universe. The recording includes exciting collaborations with Bruno Mars, Tyga, Flux Pavilion, Wynter Gordon, Shaggy, Wyclef, Ezra Koening from Vampire Weekend, and more.

Spin called the LP’s first Single “Get Free” featuring Amber Coffman of Dirty Projectors, “a meeting point between Jamaica, West Africa, and Brooklyn.” The second single from Free The Universe, “Jah No Partial” featuring Flux Pavilion dropped in October last year.

Diplo (AKA Wesley Pentz) has risen through the ranks and has asserted himself as one of the most pioneering producers of the time. Through unending curiosity and exploration of the vast multitudes of the world’s musical heritages, Diplo has managed to seamlessly connect the global underground to the audio mainstream.

He is the Grammy--‐nominated founder, owner and head Honcho of Mad Decent records, which has not only garnered widespread critical and audience accolades since its inception, but has also deservedly earned a hefty reputation as a vanguard of ground-breaking releases.
