Bicep - Belfast's muscular dance duo

With a name inspired by Arnold Schwarzenegger docudrama "Pumping Iron," Bicep are a Northern Irish duo who specialise in a muscular and globe-trotting mix of Chicago house, Italo disco and Detroit techno. Check out the pair in action by purchasing your Bicep tickets on StubHub today.

Chicago house, Detroit techno, Italo disco

Childhood friends Matt McBriar and Andy Ferguson formed Bicep in their Belfast hometown in 2009, and first began to attract attention with a blog that championed lost classics from the Detroit techno, Chicago house and Italo disco scenes. After releasing various tracks through the likes of Mystery Meat, Traveller Records and Throne of Blood, the duo decided to set up their own label, Feel My Bicep, in 2012, the same year DJ Mag crowned them Best of British Breakthrough DJs. Bicep then released a string of E.P.s including "Stash," "Circles" and "Just" and worked on tracks with the likes of Simian Mobile Disco, Ejeca and Midland before signing to Ninja Tune in 2017. Peaking at No.20 in the UK charts, their self-titled debut album arrived shortly after, and received a glowing critical reception, with Mixmag describing it as "laser focused in the pursuit of pleasure" and The Skinny hailing it as a "clear frontrunner for best house record of the year." You can both buy and sell Bicep tickets on StubHub.

A visually stunning live experience

Although Bicep began DJing on their Belfast hometown and adopted London hometown's club circuits shortly after forming, the pair didn't start performing as artists in their own right until 2015. But they quickly established themselves as one of the U.K.'s must-see live acts with their impressive blend of big beats, pumping synths and dazzling visuals. Taking their cue from the likes of fellow British dance duos The Chemical Brothers and Orbital, Bicep prove that two guys standing behind an array of laptops and hardware can still put on a visually-spectacular show. Sold-out headline shows at London's Electric Brixton and The Roundhouse as well as numerous high-profile slots saw the duo use a colourful, stage-filling array of lasers, flashing lights and graphics courtesy of innovative design company Black Box Echo. However, the fervent crowd response to anthems such as "Sacrifice," "Satisfy" and "Glue" proved that Bicep's thrilling blend of club sounds is never overshadowed.
