Run The Jewels announce Glasgow debut

Feature by News Team | 02 Oct 2014

Killer Mike and El-P – aka Run The Jewels – have added a fresh Scottish date to their UK tour this December.

The duo will make their debut in these parts when they play The Garage in Glasgow on Wed 10 Dec, ahead of gigs at Gorilla in Manchester on 11 Dec and KOKO in London on 12 Dec.

Run The Jewels was one of The Skinny’s top ten albums of 2013, grabbing a five-star review from us last July.

Their second album – RTJ2 – which also sees El-P rekindling his alliance with Zack de la Rocha, is out on 27 Oct via Mass Appeal Records on vinyl, CD or as a free download.

The group’s pre-order options for the new record include the chance for fans to book Killer Mike to appear at a school of their choice, and an offer by El-P to remix the LP using cat noises in place of all samples. A ‘Meow The Jewels’ Kickstarter to make that happen has already raised over $12,500.

Tickets for Run The Jewels' Glasgow date go on sale on Fri 3 Oct at 9am.
