Bradford Cox Books First Show in Seven Years
The Deerhunter maestro’s Atlas Sound project returns next weekend at Making Time ∞ festival By Jazz Monroe September 10, 2026 Save this story Save this story
Bradford Cox , the mercurial Deerhunter mastermind, is set to return to the stage for the first time in years at Making Time ∞ festival. After a long retreat from the public eye—interrupted only by a seemingly ad hoc noise show at a vintage market in Georgia in 2023—Cox has reanimated Atlas Sound for a live set at the Philadelphia weekender, which runs from September 18 to 20 at Fort Mifflin. You can catch Atlas Sound’s performance at 4:30 p.m. that Sunday.
Deerhunter and Atlas Sound appear to have been on unannounced hiatuses since 2019, the year the former band released Why Hasn’t Everything Already Disappeared? , the latter did a one-off set at Desert Daze, and, last but not least, Cox walked a runway for Gucci . No further details on his recent activity or future plans were forthcoming.
