Last month, Caribou also announced a show at the vintage theme park, which takes place on August 26.

Last October, meanwhile, Kaiser Chiefs shared a new Halloween-themed song, ‘Zombie Prom’, their first new music since 2019 LP ‘Duck’.

Kaiser Chiefs’ debut album ‘Employment’ turned 15 last year. Speaking to NME about the chances of an anniversary show last summer, Ricky Wilson said: “In a world where everyone’s going out on tour to celebrate the seventh anniversary of their first record…I don’t want to do it.

“I’d rather do one year of ‘Duck’. I think that would be more fun – for us and the audience.”
