Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – new live album ”Live God” Out Now + live video for ”Joy”

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds today release their new live album Live God, the stunning testament to The Wild God Tour, which wowed audiences across the UK, Europe and North America in 2024 and ‘25. Across 18 live tracks, the album captures the wildly transcendent nature of those unforgettable shows, which were, in Nick Cave’s own words, “an antidote to despair.” 

Live God is available now on Premium Double Gatefold LP, Double CD and Digital, released on Bad Seed in partnership with Play It Again Sam, and has already garnered widespread praise from critics including 4 stars in The Times

The expansive tracklist includes performances of the acclaimed 2024 studio album Wild God, as well as mind-blowing versions of catalogue favourites, such as ‘From Her To Eternity’, ‘Papa Won’t Leave You, Henry’ and ‘Into My Arms’.

For its final iteration, The Wild God Tour travels to Australia and New Zealand in February 2026. The band then return to Europe in summer 2026 for a monumental run of new outdoor headline shows and festival appearances, beginning on 10 June at Malahide Castle, Ireland, and touring through Germany, Denmark, The Netherlands, Czech Republic, Austria, Greece, Italy, Belgium, Portugal, France, UK, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Lithuania. The run concludes back in France at Rock en Seine festival on 28 August – with further dates to be announced in between. On sale timings and ticket information is available at nickcave.com

The epic season of live dates includes the now sold out UK-exclusive headline show at Preston Park in Brighton on Friday 31 July. This show isn’t just a tour date, it’s a homecoming. Nick Cave’s connection to the city of Brighton is enduring and unique, making Preston Park 2026 a landmark moment in both the city’s and the band’s history.
