Meryl Streek announces his return with a string of support dates alongside Benefits, Kneecap, Dead Kennedys and A Place To Buy Strangers.

The Irish producer rose to critical acclaim in 2022 with his debut album 796 that provided a politically and emotionally charged narrative on life in the 21st century.  Streek begins his series of support dates at London’s iconic 100 Club alongside fellow Irishmen Benefits, later joining A Place To Buy Strangers for a one-off gig at Newcastle’s Star and Shadow Cinema.

Meryl Streek Support Dates:

27.04.23 – London – 100 Club (w/ Benefits)

08.05.23 – Cardiff – Clwb Ifor Bach (w/ Kneecap)

09.05.23 – Leeds – Brudenell Social Club (w/ Kneecap)

11.05.23 – Manchester – Gorilla (w/ Kneecap)

Streek is also set to embark on his own string of UK tour dates in May 2023, including a spot on the Dot to Dot Festival line up that runs in both Bristol and Nottingham.

As the political landscape continues to deteriorate, Streeks album is now more relevant than ever.  With an upcoming tour on the horizon and support dates announced, the promise of new music is set to be revealed in the coming weeks.  796 is filled with scathing criticism and features fierce topics of alcohol abuse, Catholic Church abuse scandals and male suicide rates.  His new music is highly anticipated amongst critics and fans to continue to provide important political commentary that resonates with people from all walks of life.
