Skrillex will perform an exclusive and intimate concert at The Slipper Room in New York City on September 5 for Sirius XM listeners.

The concert will air live on September 5 at 6:00 pm ET via satellite on Electric Area channel 52 and through the SiriusXM Internet Radio App on smartphones and other connected devices, as well as online at siriusxm.com.

On October 31, 2010, SiriusXM was the first North American radio outlet to play music from Skrillex.

The private performance is in recognition of SiriusXM's early support of Skrillex's music. The concert will feature the electronic producer performing material from his latest studio album, Recess.

"SiriusXM is one of the most important outlets of our time," said Skrillex. "It has always been able to be a part of up and coming music. So stoked for this event!!"

"Skrillex has performed in some of the most famous clubs in the world, as well as arenas and stadiums worldwide, but on September 5th, he will perform in an intimate setting for a couple hundred lucky SiriusXM subscribers," said Scott Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM. "We are excited to present this exclusive event and special live broadcast just for our listeners."
