Claude VonStroke spent over 20 years creating one of the most vibrant dance music communities in North America. After selling his Dirtybird brand and taking a 2-year hiatus, he’s back with a new mindset – playing only where he wants for those who love the originality of his unique style.
His new Life of Leisure tour isn’t your normal approach from a DJ of Claude’s stature. It’s a statement of intent. This is not just a tour; it’s a state of mind, with every show designed to offer an underground safe haven from anxiety and chaos.
As VonStroke himself puts it, “This isn’t a status flex, it’s a vacation on the dancefloor. The ravers are the heroes; I’m the guide. Let’s leave the stress behind and live the Life of Leisure together, even if it’s just for a few hours in the club.”
Claude re-launches his entire 2.0 brand with a record release party at the Knockdown Center in New York on April 25th. The tour will continue to hand-picked dance floors in Austin, Atlanta, and Denver, including some of Claude’s all-time favorite spots like CODA in Toronto, Space in Miami, and It’ll Do in Dallas. Festival stops include even more VonStroke special selections like Lightning in a Bottle in Bakersfield, Movement in Detroit, and Osheaga in Montreal. The Life of Leisure tour promises to be a tripped-out journey through Vonstroke’s ability to merge community and sound. If that isn’t enough, then a European stint is already formulating with very special London and Berlin shows already slated. More news on these soon.
The Life of Leisure tour coincides with the release of Claude VonStroke’s upcoming EP, “I Was the Wolf,” due on April 25. More on that soon, but fans can expect the best elements of 2000s minimal house with the lush, quirky eccentricity only VonStroke can bring.
Don’t miss your chance to witness the return of the legend and the start of something extraordinary.
