Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds announce their first headline tour of the UK and Europe since 2017, with 27 shows across 17 countries this Autumn.The band are widely regarded as one of the greatest live acts in the world today, and these shows promise to be some of the most hotly anticipated of 2024.
Kicking off on 24th September in Oberhausen, Germany and ending in Paris, France on 17th November, the dates also take in 6 shows across the UK. The tour will follow the release of their 18th studio album ‘Wild God’ on 30th August. The new album was announced last week alongside the release of the title track.
“I never think about how a record is going to go live, it never, ever occurs to me. The lyric writing process is way too hard to take ideas like that into consideration. But, when I listen to ‘Wild God’ now, I think we can really do something epic with these songs live. We’re really excited about that – the record just feels like it was made for the stage.”
Nick Cave
