Kodaline announce string of highly-anticipated livestream performances

Irish pop-rock band Kodaline have shared plans for a host of live-streamed gigs, with albums in their entirety, B-sides and covers all on the tracklist.

Following on from the release of their critically acclaimed new album One Day At A Time in June, the live shows will take place twice a day at 11am and 8pm BST on August 29th and September 5th, 12th and 19th.

Each week the group will be playing a unique show for that stream alongside a meet and greet, starting with In A Perfect World on August 29th, where they will be playing the full album.

One Day At A Time will follow on September 5th, B-sides & Covers on September 12th, and Summer Festival live on September 19th.

Tickets are priced €11 for one show or €33.50 for all four, and you will also get the chance to buy a limited edition print and exclusive new merchandise, available exclusively through DICE.

One Day At A Time is Kodaline’s fourth album, and adds a new chapter to a career that has already encompassed three #1 albums in Ireland, two Top 5 albums in the UK, and more than a billion streams at Spotify.

Approaching the album with a streamlined process that took them back to their roots, the majority of the recording sessions revolved around the four band members alone in their modest recording space in Dublin.

Bassist Jason Boland took over the production side of things, and the band's primary objective was to focus on the emotion that has been the backbone of many Kodaline fan favourite tracks.

Insistent melodies and captivating hooks frequently explore stories that are revealing, unguarded and immediately relatable in Kodaline's back catalogue and newer releases.

”The main thing this time was to capture those emotions through everything”, says frontman Steve Garrigan. We also wanted to use a lot of harmonies and play to our strengths.

”Our music is now as emotional as it can be”, adds drummer Vinnie May. ”We're really confident and optimistic about this record.”

Describing the upcoming livestreamed gigs, the Irish four-piece said:

"This is the type of set we would be putting together for our headline shows and summer festivals so a mix of all 4 albums thrown into one hour long show."

Kodaline also recently announced a huge Dublin show at Malahide Castle for June 27, with previously purchased tickets for their postponed autumn shows at Dublin's Olympia becoming valid for this event.

Kodaline played some of the biggest shows of their career last year, selling out two huge outdoor shows at St. Annes Park in Dublin and a packed show at London's historic Roundhouse.
