The Murder Capital recently released their new album Blindness, and now, the band announces a string of North American headline tour dates kicking off in September.
They will be making stops across the states, including a stop at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn on October 9. In addition to the US dates, the band will be touring extensively throughout 2025 with dates already announced, including their biggest Irish headline show so far at Iveagh Gardens.
Blindness is the vividly realized, clear-sightedly ambitious new album from The Murder Capital. A record that’s both momentous and charged with momentum. That’s full of geography – of the mind, and of a Dublin-formed band whose members are now scattered around Ireland, London and Europe – yet bristles with the intense energy of an album finely wrought in three pacy weeks in the studio in Los Angeles. That’s intimate and simultaneously expansive. Eleven songs that don’t hang about in terms of grabbing the listener. It follows the critically acclaimed Gigi’s Recovery and their debut album, 2019’s When I Have Fears.
Blindness finds the band re-energized after previous years of heavy touring. The band recorded the album in LA with Grammy-award-winning producer John Congleton, whom the band previously worked with on Gigi’s Recovery. The tracks came together quickly, in intense and fast-paced sessions that prioritized urgency, energy, and freshness.
“He wanted us not to start layering any tracks or anything like that, just phone-record everything. That was so that, by the time we got to the studio, no song was suffocated by what it needed to be. It was more about what the song could be.”
– James McGovern, Frontman
