Suede have rescheduled their upcoming Brixton Academy shows and announced a new date at Bexhill.
The band was scheduled to perform at the O2 Academy Brixton on March 25 and 26 in support of their ninth studio album Autofiction as part of their UK tour in 2023.
But now they have been postponed to December 15 and 16 after the license of the facility was suspended until April. The decision was made after the incident at the Asake concert on December 15, when two people were killed. The third is in critical condition in hospital.
The band also announced an additional date at Bexhill De La Warr Pavilion on March 25. Tickets for this show will go on sale this Friday at 9:00 GMT, they can be purchased here. All tickets for the Brixton show remain valid for rescheduled dates.

Meanwhile, during a recent interview with NME, frontman Brett Anderson revealed that Suede have already begun work on a “much more experimental” new album. “I would like to think that our boldest work is ahead,” he explained.
“It’s a really exciting prospect — that the band at this stage of our career doesn’t just agree to run around. I love making new recordings: it makes my heart beat faster, it’s what I get up for in the morning.”
