US rockers Queens Of The Stone Age will be performing live in Manchester this month as part of their ‘The End Is Nero’ 2023 tour.

The ‘No One Knows’ and ‘Go with the Flow’ legends are heading to Manchester for a huge gig at the AO Arena on  November 14th.

Listen out for some of their catchiest new singles including ‘Carnavoyeur’, ‘Sicily’ and ‘Emotion Sickness’ as you are taken on a dark and thrilling musical roller coaster ride.

The album, released in June, was made at American record producer Rick Rubin’s iconic Shangri-La studio in Malibu, California, as well as at frontman Josh Homme’s Pink Duck studio. It comes after ‘Villains’ in 2017.

This November, the Queens would like to invite ‘the obscene and the clean, the outcasts and the weirdos, and anyone and everyone in between to attend, this is where you belong.’  As the band says, ‘leave your judgement at the door, bring anything and everything else’.

Avril Lavigne is coming to Manchester to perform a huge outdoor gig at Castlefield Bowl next summer.

The Canadian singer-songwriter has announced two outdoor shows in the UK in 2024.

She will be performing at Cardiff Castle on July 2nd before heading to Manchester to play at Castlefield Bowl on July 3rd, as part of the Sounds Of The City series.

The star will be supported by Canadian rock band Simple Plan, best known for their song ‘I’m Just a Kid’.

Lavigne enjoyed success with her pop-punk songs in the noughties, including the hits ‘Sk8er Boi’, ‘Complicated’ and ‘Girlfriend’. 

She is best known for her monochrome punk-style, smokey eyes and long blonde hair – something every skater girl wannabe copied.

The punk-pop star shared her latest studio album back in February 2022 under the title ‘Love Sux’. She later released an expanded deluxe version of the LP in November of that year.

She has received eight Grammy Awards nominations, including Best New Artist.

The UK tour will be a celebration of her Love Sux album and will be part of wider touring throughout Europe in 2024, taking place at festivals including I Days in Milan on July 9th, Festival de Nîmes in Nîmes on July 10th, and Festival Cruïlla in Barcelona on July 12th.

The singer is yet to announce any more UK dates as of yet, but the upcoming dates in Manchester and Cardiff won’t be her only shows lined up for next summer.

Tickets to see Avril Lavigne perform next year will go on sale this Friday, December 1st, at 10am and will be available to buy HERE.
