Kings of Leon to rock out for Slane’s 30th anniversary

AMERICAN rockers Kings of Leon have been confirmed as the headline act at the Slane Castle concert next summer. The band will play Meath venue on May 28 next year, some 30 years after Irish band Thin Lizzy headlined the very first concert at the venue in 1981.

Some of the biggest bands in history have played the historic venue, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Queen, David Bowie and Neil Young.

Next summer will see the turn of Nashville-born brothers Caleb, Nathan and Jared Followill, alongside their cousin Cameron.
