About to start a UK arena tour this week, The Chemical Brothers have announced an outdoor Irish gig for the spring of next year.

Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons will play the Irish Independent Park in Cork on June 30th 2020, another big assignment after the release of their No Geography album earlier this year, one which ‘could make you land just about anywhere‘ according to our review:

“Sometimes though the act is just enough no matter how little its meaning is for anyone else; on Got To Keep On the pair slip straight through into an alternative Balearic dimension that the pealing bells, frothing, happy hour synths and delirious sense of positivity makes into a playground for smiles, proving nirvana is in you forgetting your like count for good.”

“That’s what dancing teaches you, if you listen hard enough and are prepared to grab the accelerant, lessons that conditioning simply can’t suffocate. The Chemical Brothers have lit the fuse.”

The UK tour starts in Leeds on November 21st, and has further arena gigs in Manchester, Glasgow, Cardiff and Birmingham before closing at the O2 in London.
