NEWS: Kaiser Chiefs announce Forest Live date

Kaiser Chiefs have announced a Yorkshire date as part of Forest Live, the summer concert series presented by Forestry England.

Kaiser Chiefs have become one of the most successful British guitar bands of the millennium. Their unique indie rock sound evolved through revered albums ‘Employment’, ‘Yours Truly, Angry Mob’ and ‘Off With Their Heads’. The Leeds band instantly connected with their generation, led by charismatic frontman Ricky Wilson belting out anthemic hits such as ‘Oh My God’, ‘I Predict A Riot’, ‘Everyday I Love You Less And Less’, ‘Ruby’ and ‘Never Miss A Beat’. Renowned for their explosive live shows, the Forest Live set will feature new material from their latest album release ‘Duck’ and Kaiser Chiefs’ classic hits.

Forest Live is a major outdoor live music series held every year by Forestry England. It introduces forests to new audiences in unique, natural woodland arenas around the country. Over 1.9 million people have attended a Forest Live concert in the last nineteen years. Going to a Forest Live concert helps look after the nation’s forests sustainably, with income from ticket sales helping to create beautiful places for people to enjoy, wildlife to flourish and trees to grow.

Commenting on the date, Ricky Wilson said, “We’re chuffed to be playing a home county gig in Dalby Forest this Summer. We last played there in 2016 as part of Forest Live series and it’s an amazing location to perform deep in the woods so we hope you can join us on this escapade.”
