IAMX auctions stage-used items from the ‘Recollections’ tour
IAMX is auctioning a stage-used bass guitar and tour mask from the “Recollections” tour, with bidding closing 27 September 2026.
IAMX, the solo project of Chris Corner, is running a silent auction of two stage-used items from the 2026 “Recollections” tour: a bass guitar played on stage by touring bassist Gözde Düzer and a rhinestone-covered mask worn by Corner during live shows. Both auctions close on 27 September 2026 at midnight CEST, while the tour is mid-way through a run of Scandinavian dates.
The bass guitar was played on stage by Gözde Düzer, who tours as IAMX’s bassist and also records as Aux Animaux. It is signed by both Düzer and Corner and comes in a hand-stencilled hard case made for the tour. The second item is a handmade mask Corner wore onstage throughout the “Recollections” shows, covered in rhinestones with black fur ears and gold detailing. Both listings are running through the band’s official shop and close at midnight CEST on 27 September 2026.

About IAMX
IAMX is the solo project of British musician Chris Corner, who co-founded the trip-hop group Sneaker Pimps in Hartlepool in 1994. After a fourth Sneaker Pimps album went unreleased, Corner kept the songs, moved to London and released them as the debut album “Kiss + Swallow” in 2004. Later albums include “The Alternative” (2006), “Kingdom of Welcome Addiction” (2009), “Volatile Times” (2011), “The Unified Field” (2013), “Metanoia” (2015), “Unfall” (2017), “Alive In New Light” (2018), the acoustic rework album “Echo Echo” (2020) and “Machinate” (2021), followed by “Fault Lines¹” (2023) and “Fault Lines²” (2024).
IAMX opened 2026 with the single “Artificial Innocence” ahead of a European tour, and Corner discussed his songwriting approach in a Side-Line interview in May. Gözde Düzer, who tours with the band on bass and theremin and records on her own as Aux Animaux from Stockholm, spoke to Side-Line in March about joining the IAMX live band and touring with Chris Corner. The “Recollections” tour has since carried the band through Scandinavia this week, with dates in Chile and Brazil to follow in November and festival shows at Amphi Festival and Unter dem Himmel booked for the summer of 2027. This week’s silent auction of stage props from the tour runs alongside that live schedule.
