Kneecap will livestream a concert from a secret location in Ireland on Friday, October 10, as a sort of make-up show for their recently canceled U.S. tour. As well as broadcasting online from 9 p.m. Eastern (at this link), the stream will play at a ticketed showing at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn that night.
This week, Kneecap released “Sayōnara,” a new collaboration with Orbital’s Paul Hartnoll, with a video starring Derry Girls actor Jamie Lee O’Donnell. Its release followed the cancellation of their sold-out, 15-date tour of the United States, apparently due to Mo Chara’s forthcoming court appearance in London on a strongly disputed terror charge. Kneecap’s four Canadian shows are set to go ahead, as are their European dates.
