Irish rap group Kneecap will embark on their debut visit to Australia next March. The trio, comprised of Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap, and DJ Próvaí, blends satirical yet socially conscious Irish and English lyrics with elements of reality and absurdity. Their latest studio album, Fine Art, diverges from traditional music creation processes, introducing an imaginative concept inspired by the atmosphere of a traditional Irish pub.
Kneecap’s sound shifts through various styles, interpolating ethereal Irish folk songs with bass-heavy dubstep, creating an album that is fiercely intelligent, hilariously entertaining, and thought-provoking. Known for their outlandish onstage presence, they have garnered acclaim from fans and critics alike.
Having toured extensively in the UK and Ireland, performing at notable festivals such as Glastonbury, Mad Cool, Rock Werchter, and Bergenfest, Kneecap is set to make waves with their Australian debut in March 2025. Don’t miss the chance to experience this game-changing performance!
