Popular English synth-pop band Hot Chip sold out their appearance at First Avenue in Minneapolis on September 14th.
Opening up the show was special guest Holy F***. The Canadian band (featuring Brian Borcherdt, Graham Walsh, Matt "Punchy" McQuaid, and Matt Schulz) don’t really care about mainstream success, considering their unfriendly band name.
The cool thing about the electronic band is that Hot Chip's Alexis Taylor sang on their "Luxe" song, which was played in the middle of their set.
Since forming in London in 2000, Hot Chip (featuring Alexis Taylor, Joe Goddard, Al Doyle, Owen Clarke, and Felix Martin) is a main favorite of the Minneapolis/St Paul area, as the band consistently sold out all their shows whenever they play here. For those that didn’t grab a ticket, the band, with collaboration from local radio station The Current, streamed the full set live on terrestrial radio.
Since the band just released A Bath Full of Ecstasy, the band felt obligated to play some new songs, including the title track, “Spell”, “Hungry Child”, and “Melody of Love”.
The interesting thing about “Spell” was that the track was written for Katy Perry (Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard worked on some tracks for Perry’s album Witness), but ultimately either she rejected it or the song didn’t work for her… so the band re-worked it as a Hot Chip original.
Still, that left plenty of room to play some fan-favorites, such as “Night & Day” and complete crowd pleaser “Ready for the Floor”.
