Sample king and boundary pusher DJ Shadow has announced headline Australian tour dates to coincide with his appearance at Perth Festival.
He is widely recognised as a game changer in hip hop circles after the release of the hugely influential 'Endtroducing...' in 1996, which was constructed almost entirely from samples. His last tour in Australia was 2011's 'Shadowsphere' tour that saw him play inside a rotating silver ball; his last full length studio release 'The Less You Know, The Better' was also released in 2011 and featured vocals from Talib Kweli and Little Dragon.
The tour kicks off Friday February 7 in Brisbane and finishes Saturday 15 February in Perth. You can check out the full list of dates below.
