They last played a live show at New York’s Guggenheim Museum in 2014.
The group will first play Lollapalooza Brazil, which takes places from March 25-26.

In the last three years, the group has been working on the follow-up to 2012’s Coexist. In 2015, Jamie xx released a solo album called In Colour that featured his bandmate Romy Madley Croft. Romy talked about the band’s origins during a recent conversation with Savage’s Jehnny Beth.
