Jacques lu Cont to Support Pet Shop Boys On Upcoming Live Dates

Pet Shop Boys have announced that Jacques lu Cont will support the duo for several dates on the approaching North American leg of their Electric tour. Jacques lu Cont is the solo project of mastermind DJ, producer, and remixer Stuart Price, who also produced Pet Shop Boys' most recent critically acclaimed release, Electric. Jacques lu Cont will support at the kick off date of the North American leg of the Electric tour in Miami on September 12th and will also join for October dates in San Francisco, New York and Las Vegas.

In 2005, he produced and co-wrote Madonna's 2005 album Confessions on a Dancefloor. It became her most club-savvy album since her debut over 20 years earlier, largely thanks to Price's heavy schedule of remixing and DJing. Price's studio output has been prolific. He has reworked material for tours by the Pet Shop Boys, Madonna and New Order, remixed U2 and Katy Perry, and produced hit albums like Take That's Progress, Kylie Minogue's Aphrodite, The Killer's Day and Age and Scissor Sisters' Night Work. He was Music Week's Best Producer of the Year in 2011 and has won three Grammy awards for his remixing and production.

Pet Shop Boys embarked on the Electric tour in May of this year. The tour is created in collaboration with Es Devlin (creative director/designer) and Lynne Page (stage director/choreographer). For a complete list of dates, see below.
