Erasure add extra Olympia date

Due to demand, Erasure have announced a second date at the Olympia Theatre, now also playing the venue on June 14. Tickets are on sale as of today and are priced at €39.50. The duo also play the Marquee in Cork on June 15, and the band have been tweeting from the studio as they record their new album with synth pop-wizard Frankmusik, due this summer.

Between Duran Duran, The Human League and now Erasure all making comebacks and synth-pop never being more prevalent on the airwaves (Gaga, Robyn, Mike Posner), it's never felt more like 1985.
