Kasabian will stream a live game of FIFA 17 around the world ahead of their intimate show at the Kentish Town Forum in London next Wednesday (April 19).

The game, intended to inspire the band’s beloved Leicester City FC in their upcoming crunch match against Athletico Madrid, will be streamed over Twitch on Monday April 17, as will their show at the Forum.

"Seems only right to get stuck in on FIFA ahead of the Leicester game,” guitarist Serge Pizzorno said. “Hopefully, we can make life imitate art for a win in the Champions League too. What a way that would be to kick off our run of intimate shows at the Kentish Town Forum. We're buzzing to play our new tracks live to fans in such a small venue, it's going to be incredible.”

Kasabian’s new album ‘For Crying Out Loud’ is released on May 5. “It’s about saving guitar music from the abyss!” Serge told Q Magazine of the record last month, “because it’s gone. They’re great songs to sing, they were made for him, for that.”
