Less than a week removed after headlining Reading and Leeds Festival 2017, Kasabian are set to conquer London’s O2 and beyond this December. Tickets for the tour are on sale now, and London tickets can be found here.
The appearance follows on the heels of the multi-award winning band’s latest album, For Crying Out Loud, which was released back in May to critical acclaim before rising to number one on the UK charts.
The origins of the band stretch back to 1997, when the group came together in community college. Adopting the name Kasabian – after Linda Kasabian, a former member of the infamous Manson cult – the group have since released six studio albums, accumulating numerous awards and praise along the way.
With a catalogue of classic singles that span the past fifteen years, Kasabian have cemented themselves as a pillar of modern British music. With hits such as 'Club Foot', 'Shoot the Runner', and 'Fire' to name but a few, it comes as little wonder that Kasabian have earned an unprecedented 16 NME Award nominations.
Kasabian’s live performances have earned them the distinction of being festival favorites in as well, thanks to their exhilarating concert performances. Notably, their latest video, shot for their new single, 'Ill Ray (The King)', features three-time Emmy nominated Game of Thrones actress Lena Headey.
The band’s performances at the O2 set to take place Friday, 1 December and Saturday, 2 December comes on the heels of a stunningly successful U.S. tour across the states. The band will be supported by the provocative punk duo Slaves.
