• Gorgon City Reveals 2015 North American Live Tour Details [FULL SCHEDULE]

    Part of the new wave of UK house and garage exports going global, Kye Gibbon and Matt Robson-Scott, known professionally as Gorgon City, are coming back to the United States. They teased a small North American tour a short while ago and now have revealed the details for where they will be touching down. They will begin their tour in New York City on February 17 at an undisclosed location, but since it is a live tour, it will probably be some place with a stage where they can set up their gear like a Music Hall of Williamsburg, Terminal 5 or Webster Hall. They will then hit three more United States hotspots, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco, before circling back to the East Coast for two chows in Canada in Montreal and Toronto on February 25 and 26, respectively.
