The upcoming show serves as a UK-exclusive performance for Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, and comes in support of their acclaimed 2024 album ‘Wild God’. It follows their gig at Dublin’s Malahide Castle last month.

Cave and his band are currently out in Europe, and played a set at Open’er 2026 last night (Thursday July 2). NME described the show as “a potted run-through of their impressive discography”, adding that “there was a giddy sense of chaos to the whole thing”.

The Bad Seeds’ forthcoming European festival appearances include NOS Alive, Mad Cool, Way Out West and Rock En Seine. Earlier this year, they headed out on the road in Australia and New Zealand.

During their recent Dublin concert, the band broke out a cover of The Pogues‘ ‘Rainy Night In Soho’.

In May, Cave revealed that the Bad Seeds were “messing around” in the studio with the “vague idea of making a new record” as the follow-up to ‘Wild God’.

“This morning, I am going to Islington to mess around in the studio,” he explained, saying that he would be in the studio with his bandmates Martyn P. Casey, Thomas Wydler, Jim Sclavunos and Warren Ellis.

Cave appears on Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea’s 2026 debut solo album, ‘Honora’, alongside Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke. He also recorded a new version of ‘Red Right Hand’ for Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man.

Meanwhile, the singer-songwriter shared his blunt verdict on Russell Brand’s new Christianity conversion book in April.
