Electronic music producer and DJ Fred Again.. has announced his debut tour in India, with performances scheduled for Delhi NCR, Mumbai, and Bengaluru this December. The tour marks the artist’s only run of live shows for the year and features a new three-year partnership with the whiskey brand Monkey Shoulder, under which the producer will serve as the company’s first Creative Partner.
Where and when will Fred Again.. perform in India?
The upcoming tour will see the producer perform at three major venues across India’s metropolitan hubs. According to the tour announcement, the schedule for the December dates is as follows:
- December 05: Leisure Valley Ground, Delhi NCR
- December 09: Mahalaxmi Race Course, Mumbai
- December 13: NICE Grounds, Bengaluru
These performances represent the artist’s first live appearances since his shows in Italy last September. The selection of large-scale venues, including the Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai and the NICE Grounds in Bengaluru, suggests a significant scale for the production, catering to the growing demand for international electronic music in the Indian market.
What music will be featured during the Fred Again.. Indian tour?
The setlists for the Indian dates are expected to span the breadth of the producer’s recent discography. Fans can expect a transition from the more intimate, sample-driven sounds of his early Actual Life releases to the high-energy, club-oriented material found in his ongoing USB project.
The USB series has become a central pillar of the artist’s recent output. Following the release of USB001 in 2024, the USB002 project was released last December. The series is characterized by a continuous state of musical flux, moving away from the “flickers of life” captured in his previous work toward a more relentless, dance-floor-focused aesthetic. This evolution in sound has been noted by music critics, including those at NME, who have highlighted the project’s ability to break traditional boundaries of electronic production.
The tour is expected to include staples from his collaborative catalog, which features prominent artists such as Skrillex, Flowdan, Baby Keem, and Lil Yachty. Notable tracks likely to appear in the live sets include “Rumble,” “leavemealone,” and “stayinit.”
The Monkey Shoulder partnership and tour logistics
A significant component of this tour is the commercial partnership between Fred Again.. and the Scottish whiskey brand Monkey Shoulder. This collaboration is more than a standard sponsorship; the producer has been named the brand’s first-ever Creative Partner. This agreement is structured as a three-year partnership, indicating a long-term integration of the artist’s brand with the company’s marketing and creative direction.
For fans looking to attend, tickets are scheduled to go on sale starting June 30. The artist has indicated that early access will be available to fans who have previously signed up through his official channels.

Recent career developments and live performances
The announcement of the Indian tour follows a period of intense activity for the producer. Earlier this year, Fred Again.. completed a residency at London’s Alexandra Palace as part of his USB002 tour. The residency concluded with a high-profile appearance by French DJ and Daft Punk member Thomas Bangalter, performing a back-to-back set to close the show.
In addition to his live performances, the producer has focused on experimental releases, including a 108-hour continuous mix released in April that utilized exclusive files created specifically for the USB002 tour. His recent work has also seen him recognized within the industry for his contributions to the dance music genre, following successful collaborative singles and his involvement in community-focused events, such as production workshops for musicians in London.
The arrival of Fred Again.. in India signals a continued trend of major electronic music acts targeting the subcontinent, following a rise in large-scale festival and solo tour infrastructure in cities like Mumbai and Bengaluru.
