Following a whopper performance at this summer's Electric Picnic, US four-piece The Killers have confirmed two Irish dates. They'll play Belfast's Odyssey Arena on February 21, and the O2, Dublin (22), next year.

The Nevada act was formed by Brandon Flowers in 2001 and released their critically-acclaimed debut Hot Fuss in 2004. During a hiatus, lead singer Flowers went solo, the fruit of which was Flamingo in 2010.

Tickets for both shows go on sale this Friday, October 19, priced £45/48 (Odyssey), and €49.05/51.65.
