Nile Rodgers and Chic confirm two Irish shows this summer

We cannot wait to see the legend again.

There were hundreds of acts at Electric Picnic last year but the one that still burns bright in our memories is Chic.

Nile Rodgers and company played a high-energy emotional set in Stradbally and they're coming back to our shores for more this summer.

The iconic band will play the Iveagh Gardens in Dublin on July 9 and at Live at the Marquee in Cork on July 10. Tickets for both gigs go on sale next Thursday, March 12.

Here's a taste of what you can expect.
