The Boxer Rebellion takes hold in Ireland

British rock group The Boxer Rebellion will perform at Auntie Annie's in Belfast on September 29 and at the Academy 2 venue in Dublin on September 30.

The band's Irish jaunt is in support of this year's Union album, which reached number one in the UK Itunes 'Alternative' download chart in January shortly after it was released exclusively in that format. The physical release of the album will be available in stores in mid September.

Tickets for the two dates are available tomorrow, with tickets priced at €13.80 for the Dublin gig.
