- In April, the Swedish band will play their first dates on the continent in several years, including appearances at Coachella.
- The Knife will tour North America for the first time since the Silent Shout days starting with Coachella in April. Olof and Karin Dreijer made quite a stir last year when they suddenly re-appeared with a new double-album, their first album proper since 2006's Silent Shout and first release since 2010's collaborative opera Tomorrow, In A Year. Shaking The Habitual was a highly conceptual album surrounding capitalism, consumption and gender politics, and last year they toured Europe with a show that was just as high-minded. (It earned them some polarized reactions.) Now they're taking that performance—which they say "[disrespects] borders between digital and analogue, fake and real"—across the pond for their first major North American gigs in several years. It'll start on April 11th on the first weekend of Coachella, with a date in Oakland set for the 15th before the festival's second weekend. From there, they'll travel through Denver, Chicago, Boston and NYC, heading up into Canada for dates in Toronto and Montreal as well. They'll be joined by a cast of dancers, technical engineers and performers, including Shannon Funchess from Light Asylum.
