(New York City, USA) - The Chemical Brothers will embark on their first proper US live tour in over 5 years this month. As with previous tours, the band takes this new live show to even greater heights with ground-breaking auditory technology and retina scorching visuals by FLATNOSEGEORGE. This tour is their full live experience - not a DJ tour. The Chemical Brothers sixth long player, We Are The Night was released on July 17th 2007 and debuted as the #1 album in the UK - their 5th straight UK #1 album.

The Chemical Brothers tour is being presented by Zune as a part of their On The Road program, and encompasses a full range of brand integration with Microsoft's digital media player. Be sure to check out the new video contest for the Brother's new single, The Salmon Dance (featuring Fatlip). The winner will be chosen by Tom & Ed on September 10 and will receive 2 tickets to see the band perform live. Details are at www.youtube.com/group/salmondance .

Liverpool-based electro-pop quartet Ladytron will join The Chemical Brothers at hipster mega-venue McCarren Park Pool in Brooklyn, NY on Saturday, September 22. Their 2001 debut has spawned a glut of imitators obsessing over vintage synths and asymmetric haircuts, yet Ladytron always stood apart with their unbridled energetic synth-pop and Leftfield leaning shoe-gazing sounds.
