The Libertines Surprise Fans with an Early Appearance and Collaboration at Liverpool's Cavern Club

Published January 25, 2024

On January 24th, The Libertines made a memorable entrance at the Cavern Club in Liverpool, not just for their scheduled performance, but for joining a local supporting act on stage. This unanticipated collaboration took place during their 'The Albion Tour', an expedition through the UK to reconnect with their roots and perform in small, intimate venues ahead of their new album release.

Anticipation Builds for New Album

Ahead of their new album 'All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade', which is set to release on March 8th, The Libertines are touring various intimate venues. These shows serve as the perfect preamble to the album's debut, offering fans a close-up live music experience.

Impromptu Cavern Club Performance

The band has expressed their desire to revisit the close-contact atmosphere of smaller venues where they can truly connect with the audience. Living up to this ethos, they took the opportunity to overlap their performance with that of a local musician, delighting the crowd with an unexpectedly collaborative set.

A fan captured this special moment, sharing a video online showing The Libertines taking the stage in the early afternoon and performing a mini-set with the local act playing at the time.

Continuing the 'The Albion Tour'

After stirring excitement in Liverpool, The Libertines' tour is set to continue with performances across several more UK locations, including Milton Keynes, Cardiff, Derby, Falmouth, Southampton, Stoke, Leeds, and Glasgow.

Behind the Album

Discussing their forthcoming album, band members Pete Doherty and Carl Bârat revealed their simple yet profound ambition: to write beautiful songs. They describe the latest album as a work they are proud of, embodying songs they truly believe in without the distractions that have sidetracked them in the past.

Fans were treated to a preview of the album's tone with the release of the single 'Shiver', a song that embodies the collaborative spirit of both band members, originally proposed to be titled 'The Last Dream Of Every Dying Soldier'.
