Mos Def announces second gig for Guinness Cork Jazz Festival weekend 

Following Cork Opera House sell-out, another appearance has been added at a smaller venue in the city 

Yasiin Bey, formerly known as Mos Def, will play two gigs in Cork over the October bank holiday weekend. 

Ticket demand has been so high for the gig by Yasiin Bey/Mos Def for the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival that organisers have added a second concert in another venue at the weekend (October 22–25).

In advance of his sell-out Cork Opera House on Monday, October 25, the New York rapper will also play the intimate Live at St Luke's venue on Sunday, October 24.
