Rap trio Kneecap have announced they will release a new song ahead of their headline performance at London’s Wide Awake festival, just two days after one of their members was charged with a terror offence.

The band, made up of Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, Naoise Ó Cairealláin and J J Ó Dochartaigh, thanked the “25,000 legends” who will be attending Friday night’s performance in a post on Instagram, while revealing the new song will be released at 1pm.
