Due to exceptional demand, American indie rockers The Killers have announced an extra date at Dublin's Olympia, as well as extra performances in Manchester and London.
The Killers have announced additional performance dates for their 2024 Rebel Diamonds tour, including an extra night at Dublin's 3Arena.
Marking the first time the band have played since 2017's Wonderful Wonderful tour, The Killers are set to play venues throughout the UK and Ireland, ahead of the forthcoming release of their compilation album, Rebel Diamonds. A 20 track suite of career highlights, the album features bona fide modern day classics 'Mr. Brightside,' 'When You Were Young,' 'All These Things That I’ve Done,' 'Human, ' 'Read My Mind,' through to the band’s most recently released, critically-lauded single, 'Your Side of Town,' and one brand new cut, the anthemic 'Spirit.'
A curated testament to the impressive catalogue of songwriting and musicianship that the killers have put forth during their illustrious career, Rebel Diamonds is a retrospective collection recognising the band's status as one of the most influential voices in modern rock n' roll. The album features at least one song from each of the bands seven studio albums; from their lauded debut Hot Fuss, celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2024, to the bands latest full length LP, 2021 Pressure Machine. The band have also re-recorded 'A Dustland Fairytale' from 2008's Day & Age with the aid of legendary American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen.

“See it’s been said that what’s remembered lives,” reflects lead singer Brandon Flowers. "And we’ve racked up stadiums full of memories the past twenty years, enough to fill lifetimes. Twenty songs for twenty years..."
