Fans of the indietronica chanson band Stereolab have been waiting for this news.
Ever since the release of their first album in fifteen years, Instant Holograms On Metal Film in May, Irish gigs have been conspicuously absent but we were never worried were we?
Today, promoters Foggy Notions reward Irish fans patience with four Irish tour dates for the band this February, which includes their first ever show in Limerick and their first Cork show in 18 years.
The dates are:
Thursday February 19th – Cyprus Avenue, Cork
Friday February 20th – Dolan’s, Limerick
Saturday February 21st – National Concert Hall, Dublin
Sunday February 22nd – Mandela Hall, Belfast.
Tickets all around €35 plus fees.
