Before hitting the road in 2017, Run The Jewels is scheduled to perform in both Austin and Houston before the year is up. One of their Texas shows will take place at the three-day Sound On Sound Fest.
In September, El-P provided a brief update on the status of Run The Jewels 3 El-P via Twitter.
“every word for #RTJ3 has now officially been recorded. the album is almost finished,” El-P wrote.
