Supergrass announce Iveagh Gardens gig for summer 2025

90s supergroup Supergrass have announced a concert at Iveagh Gardens for July 13th, 2025. The band will return to Dublin to perform their debut album live, in its entirety, for the first time, with room for fan favourites on the setlist.

Tickets start from €45 and are on sale Tuesday December 17th via Ticketmaster.

“Pop does have a habit of taking us by surprise, but back in the spring of 1995 you’d have got some decent odds on the chances of three naked men in a bath turning out to be one of the few British bands to escape the 20th Century with their dignity intact,” a statement reads.

Supergrass - Gaz Goombes, Mick Quinn and Danny Goffey, along with collaborator-turned-member Rob Coombes - went on to score an unbroken run of five Top 10 albums, among them three platinum bestsellers generating millions of worldwide sales and spawning ten Top 20 singles. The Brit and Ivor Novello-winning outfit toured the world several times over, with headliners and gigs supporting everyone from Blur and Arctic Monkeys to Foo Fighters, Radiohead and The Cure.

Having originally formed in 1991 as a shoegaze band called The Jennifers, they gigged around Oxford for a spell of months before being signed to Suede’s record label, Nude. However, the band didn’t work out under The Jennifers banner, and forced them to take a new direction. Some members left, while the rest reformed as Theodore Supergrass, the first name eventually jettisoned, and struck a deal with Radiohead’s management company.

From there, a slew of independently-released singles got the ball rolling on the charts. In 1995 Supergrass’s Mercury-nominated debut album I Should Coco hit the charts at Number 3, rose to Number One in the week following Glastonbury and ended up shifting over 500,000 copies in the UK and a million worldwide.

The following albums, 1997’s In It For The Money and 1999’s Supergrass spawned several hit singles, among them ‘’Going Out’, ‘Moving’ and ‘Pumping On Your Stereo’.

Eventually, in 2010, the band announced their split. In a joint statement, they admitted: “We still love each other but, cliché notwithstanding, musical differences have led to us moving on.”

Yet, their legacy remains, as the band are teaming up to celebrate their debut album with a can’t-miss show at Iveagh Gardens next summer.
