Royal Blood have announced new summer shows in the UK and Europe.
Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher will celebrate the 10th anniversary of their self-titled debut album with two nights at the recently reopened O2 Academy Brixton in London on June 18 and 19, Tempodrom in Berlin on July 10, Razzmatazz in Barcelona on July 15, and La Riviera in Madrid the next day. Tickets go on sale at 9am GMT/10am CET on March 28.
The shows form part of an already busy summer for the pair, which includes dates across Europe, North America and South America, mixing headline shows with support slots for Queens of the Stone Age, and festival appearances at Download,Shaky Knees, and Benicàssim.
Alongside news of the shows, the duo have announced 'Royal Blood – 10th Anniversary Edition', which is due for release on August 16. It will feature bonus material, including four b-sides, fan favourites One Trick Pony and Hole, previously unreleased track Sleeptalker, Tom Dalgety’s original mix of Ten Tonne Skeleton and five live tracks from 2015, three of which were captured during their first main stage set at Reading Festival. They said:
“We can’t quite comprehend the fact that a decade has passed since the release of our debut album! The world, minds, and bodies we inhabit now feel somewhat unrecognisable to where it all began, yet the music on that record has remained a constant. It really did change our lives and we owe it everything.
"Playing these anniversary shows is going to be the ultimate victory lap and feels like the most meaningful way to celebrate the occasion with our incredible fans who have been so loyal to us over the years. We’re thrilled to let you know that a very special 10th Anniversary Edition, including live versions, B-sides and unheard material is due to be released too!”
Royal Blood released their latest album, 'Back To The Water Below', in 2023.
