Disclosure are bringing their Wild Life concept back to New York City. Capping off a spring and early summer tour of the North America, the "Omen" duo have announced a new show at the Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, where they will be joined by an eclectic group of artists, not just DJs and electronic acts such as UK DJ duo Dusky, local legends Mobb Deep, hotly tipped new soulful r&b singer Anderson .Paak with his band The Free Nationals and Los Angeles-based DJ Justin Jay.
The event will take place at Forest Hills Stadium, which hosts concerts all summer and the US Open in August, on June 18. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. EST through their website here. The stadium has not hosted many electronic acts to date, so this will be an interesting litmus test fr the genre.
This will be the second Wild Life party that Disclosure has hosted in New York City. They last took over Pier 94 in midtown Manhattan on New Year's Eve 2014. That night they brought out some friends including Dusky (see a pattern?), Claude VonStroke, Ten Walls (woops) and others.
This is will be one of the last shows for Disclosure on their announced North American tour this spring and early summer. They just announced a group of Wild Life club shows during Miami Music Week and after that, they kick off two months of touring in Mexico and the United States from April 6 to the middle of June, capping off at Firefly Festival or this Wildlife show at Forest Hills Stadium, depending on when they perform at Firefly.
In between they have gigs at Coachella, Sasquatch!, Boston Calling and some headlining shows at Red Rocks and Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in May.
