Karl Hyde and Rick Smith aka Underworld are the undisputed heavyweights of the electronic world and Headline SW4 on Saturday 27th August

Karl Hyde and Rick Smith aka Underworld are the undisputed heavyweights of the electronic world who will be headlining SW4 on Saturday 27th August for their only London show of 2011.

Famed for their spine-tingling techno/rock fusion, their sound has been widely acclaimed in both commercial and underground domains for over 20 years. ‘Born Slippy’ smashed both, the perfect marriage of house, techno, drum & bass and pop. Those chords forming arguably the greatest dance track ever.

Into the live arena and rocking stadium sized crowds is second nature having headlined the likes of the Glastonbury, Glade and the legendary Love Parade. Not to mention last year’s sell out concerts in London, Manchester and Glasgow. In the process these broke new ground with stunning visuals and incredible sound engineering. No superlative can do justice to undoubtedly one of the most influential acts of the past three decades.

When asked about this years SW4 Weekender, this is what Karl Hyde had to say;
"London is our town and we love to play in front of a home crowd. SW4 is going to be amazing this year and we can't wait to play there. It's a party in the sun for London's night people. See you there."

Underworld join Pendulum for this years South West Four Weekender on London's Clapham Common which is said to be one of London's favourite dance music festivals always pulling in some the world's top DJ's spread across the Bank Holiday weekend.
