Black Rebel Motorcycle Club will play two Irish dates later this year.

The rock trio, who are currently working on their as-yet-untitled new record which is due for release later this year, will hit Dublin's Academy on October 23rd and Belfast's Limelight on October 24th.

All the shows on their European tour will have a very limited number of VIP packages via Artist Arena that will include a Meet & Greet with all members of the band, sound check attendance, early venue entry, an exclusive merchandise item and a collectible laminate.

VIP/ticket pre-sale will begin on Tuesday 9th May at 10am local times, with general on-sales to follow this Friday at 9am from usual outlets. Tickets for the Dublin gig are €35 including booking fee.
