Get ready, American K-pop enthusiasts, because the chart-topping boy group, XIKERS, is about to visit the United States with their debut tour, 2023 XIKERS WORLD TOUR TRICKY HOUSE: FIRST ENCOUNTER IN USA.
The interest surrounding XIKERS is nothing short of explosive; this 10-member boy group under KQ Entertainment unexpectedly shot to fame in March, 2023, with their first EP, HOUSE OF TRICKY: Doorbell Ringing. Its title track, TRICKY HOUSE, has reached a staggering 13 million streams on Spotify alone. XIKERS debuted at No.1 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists Chart, No.4 on the Billboard World Albums Chart, and No.75 on the Billboard 200 Chart.
XIKERS followed up their debut with their second EP, HOUSE OF TRICKY: HOW TO PLAY, which shattered their previous sales records; the album’s first-week sales nearly doubled their previous record. Now, XIKERS are set to take their lively sound and dance performances to the United States with their US tour. The event will kick off in New York on October 22, 2023, at The Apollo and traverse through Chicago, Fort Worth, Houston, Los Angeles, and finally concluding in San Francisco on November 4, 2023, at The Warfield.
The announcement of the U.S. tour comes as a response to the overwhelming demand from fans, thanks to MyMusicTaste, which specialises in organising fan-initiated concerts around the world.
