Actress, also known as Darren Cunningham, has announced a run of live A/V tour dates across North America in early 2024, including performances in New York, Montreal, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami. The brand-new live show, which debuted earlier this month in London, features visuals from Oscar Monzon alongside a conceptual light show and set that spans Actress’ catalog alongside new material from his latest album LXXXVIII.
LXXXVIII, the roman numerals for 88, is a reference to a previous Actress release of the same name as well as a nod to the concept of infinity, emphasizing how everything is connected within Actress’ works. The release follows the arrival of Dummy Corporation in 2022, which placed Actress firmly back in the center of underground club culture. Prior to that his 2020 album Karma & Desire, which saw guest collaborations from Mercury Prize winner Sampha, Zsela and Aura T-09, was received to widespread praise.
Actress recently performed as the official support for James Blake’s UK/European tour, which included stops at Alexandra Palace in London, L’Olympia in Paris, Fabrique in Milan, UFO Im Velodrom in Berlin, and Forest National Club in Brussels, and played alongside Autechre in Australia across selected dates this year.
