Hot Chip's position as one of Britain's most beloved electronic bands is now firmly and magnificently set in stone, as is the group's ability to mix the highest strobe-lit euphoria with the most reflective kind of headphones melancholy. Having produced eight albums, countless DJ mixes, and borderline devotional live performances, Hot Chip has claimed the sweet spot of the dancefloor as their own.

Comprising Alexis Taylor, Joe Goddard, Al Doyle, Felix Martin, and Owen Clarke, Hot Chip combines indie and dance in innovative ways. On early albums like 2006's Mercury Prize-nominated The Warning, the band evoked the cleverness of Talking Heads and the poignancy of the Pet Shop Boys.

As time went on, Hot Chip's music broadened and deepened, encompassing the tender musings on commitment in 2010's One Life Stand as well as the anything-goes genre mashups of 2015's Why Make Sense?. With hit singles including the Grammy-nominated "Ready for the Floor" from 2008's Made in the Dark and songs like "Over & Over" and "Boy From School" from The Warning, Hot Chip earned a following that allowed them to headline festivals. This was reflected in the rave-tinged anthems of 2019's A Bath Full of Ecstasy. In 2022, the band returned with Freakout/Release—a collection of flesh-and-blood songs that saw the band reaching into the darkness to emerge as a true creative unit, their gazes fixed positively on the future ahead.

In 2024, the band leaned further into their DJ credentials, touring worldwide with a summer packed with festivals, including an iconic Glastonbury peak-time set at the all-new Arcadia—evidence that the band is far from slowing down.
