Drum and bass icon Andy C is returning to the United States for a three-date run this weekend, culminating in the HARD Summer Music Festival debut of his acclaimed ALiVe audiovisual performance.
The legendary DJ and producer will begin the tour on July 31 at BERHTA in Washington, D.C., followed by an August 1 appearance at Club Vinyl in Denver. He’ll wrap up the weekend on August 2 at HARD Summer in Inglewood, California, where fans will experience Andy C: ALiVe for the first time in the festival’s history.
First introduced more than a decade ago, ALiVe has become one of electronic music’s most celebrated live performance concepts, blending exclusive edits, carefully curated track selections, and synchronized visual production into an immersive concert experience. The latest evolution, ALiVe 3.0, premiered at Drumsheds in 2024 and introduced an innovative hologram backdrop, adding another dimension to the show’s cutting-edge audiovisual presentation.
