Irish rock band Kodaline announce Dublin show

After being forced to reschedule their Shepherd's Bush Empire tour dates when the venue closed to fix "serious structural damage," Kodaline have announced a huge show in their hometown of Dublin for July, in support of their new album, Gigwise reports.

The band were set to play a handful of Christmas shows at the west London venue, but all shows were cancelled in an "urgent notice" posted on the academy music group website, in which the venue said, "Safety and amenities for our customers and staff is paramount and we are truly sorry for the inconvenience this unexpected maintenance and repair may cause. We are undertaking remedial works and aim to be fully open within a matter of weeks."

The four dates were subsequently rescheduled for March, so English fans will still be able to enjoy tracks from the band's 2015 album, Coming Up For Air, live. Now, Irish fans will be able to experience the same.

Kodaline will play at Dublin's Marlay Park on 8 July, and will be supported by Jess Glynne - who's had an equally successful 2015.
