Kneecap

MG Live, I OH YOU & Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce Irish rap group Kneecap will embark on their debut visit to Australia next March.

Kneecap - Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap and DJ Próvaí - blend their satirical yet socially conscious Irish and English lyrics with reality and absurdity. Their latest studio album, Fine Art, threw away the traditional process of music creation that the group had previously followed. Instead, scrapping all work they had prepared for the album and building The Rutz, an imaginative blur of the highs and lows found in the traditional Irish pub. Although a figment of the band’s imagination, the genre shifting project is certainly real in its rawness and demand to provoke emotion.

Shifting musical styles throughout the album like a boozy night out, Kneecap interpolate ethereal Irish folk songs to bass-heavy bouncing dubstep. Delivering a fiercely intelligent, consistently hilarious and thought inducing album all at once.

Touring across the UK and Ireland since their inception, the band are known for their outlandish onstage presence, something which fans and critics consistently commend them for. Performing festival sets at this year’s Glastonbury, Mad Cool, Rock Werchter and Bergenfest and due to embark on their Fine Art headline England and Scotland tour in October, it seems as though the world is finally waking up to the message Kneecap encapsulates.

A band who refuses to shy away, don’t miss riotous rap trio Kneecap as they make their game-changing Australian debut in March 2025.
