Passion Pit return to Dublin

Following the release of their debut EP Chunk of Change last September – which was originally only meant to be a Valentine's Day gift from frontman Michael Angelakos to his girlfriend – Passion Pit will play The Academy in Dublin on May 7.

The group, who were voted Best New Act of 2008 by Boston's The Phoenix, are now signed to labels in the US and the UK, and release their debut Manners LP here on May 18.

Tickets to the show are €15.50 and go on sale March 13 at 9am.
