Joe Goddard + Baba Ali

Alongside his work with Hot Chip, The 2 Bears, and HARD FEELINGS, Joe Goddard keeps busy as a solo artist, songwriter, producer, DJ, remixer, and co-founder of the Greco-Roman record label. Across all his projects, he is driven by a hunger for experimentation, an innate understanding of dance, pop, and indie music’s inner workings, and a heartfelt love of collaboration. 

Joe embraces the role of ‘producer’ on a musical, practical, and spiritual level. His infatuation with dance music began as a teenager in the ’90s, attending clubnights where he progressed from indie and hip hop to drum’n’bass to house and garage. 

On top of his solo records, Joe has released eight albums with Hot Chip, two with The 2 Bears, and one with HARD FEELINGS. Other projects include Extra Credit (with Justin Strauss and Marcus Marr) and A Pulse Train (with Caribou’s Dan Snaith, Floating Points, and others). He’s worked with Jarvis Cocker, Peter Gabriel, and Bernard Sumner; remixed Jessie Ware, Kraftwerk, and Disclosure; co-wrote Katy Perry’s Into Me You See; and released the 2011 hit Gabriel with Valentina.

Support
Baba Ali
Baba Ali is the combined force of American performer and musician Baba Doherty and British guitarist Nik Balchin, both based in London. Within their first few years, the duo have worked with Jamie Hince (The Kills), Alex Epton and most recently Al Doyle (LCD Soundsystem / Hot Chip).For their 2023 album Laugh Like A Bomb, Baba Ali took to production duties themselves in Al Doyle’s London studio, and finished the final mixes with Sheffield producer Ross Orton (Working Men's Club / M.I.A. / Arctic Monkeys). The album’s bold and fiery lead single Burn Me Out serves as a blueprint for what the duo call their ‘electro punk disco’ sound and was premiered by Lauren Laverne on BBC 6 Music. Onstage, Baba Ali is a captivating and seductive presence, transmitting a wall of sound that fills the room with an infectious raw energy and groove that makes standing still impossible.
