Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds will return to the UK and Ireland this spring as part of a European live tour – you know that already, but another London date has been added.
The band, whose excitably-titled new album DIG, LAZARUS, DIG!!! is released through Mute on the 3rd of March, will play the new show at the Hammersmith Apollo on the 8th of May. Tickets?
The full schedule now looks like this:
April 21 Lisbon Coliseum 22 Porto Coliseum 24 San Sebastian Polideportivo Anoeta 25 Barcelona Razzmatazz 26 Marseilles Docks Du Suds 28 Amsterdam Music Hall 29 Paris Casino Du Paris
May 1 Brussels Forest 3 Dublin Castle 4 Glasgow Academy 5 Birmingham Academy 7 London Hammersmith Apollo 16 Oslo Spektrum 17 Stockholm Annexe 19 Copenhagen KB Halle 21 Berlin Tempodrom 24 Prague Sazka Arena 25 Vienna Gasometer
June 3 Zagreb IN Music Festival 4 Belgrade Arena 6 Salonika Moni Lazariston 7 Athens Lycabetus Theatre
The shows are the band’s first since the Abattoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus tour sold out as 2004 turned into 2005 - the first single to be taken from the album, also its title track, is released on the 18th of February. The video’s always worth a watch. Yes?
