My Chemical Romance to play Eden Sessions TWICE next year
An additional date has been announced for the American band
It has been announced that My Chemical Romance will play the Eden Sessions twice next year.
The American band had already been revealed as a headliner for the Cornish biomes in 2022.
Now an additional date has been added, meaning they will play both the 16th and 17th May 2022.
Rita Broe, Managing Director of Eden Sessions Ltd, said today: “Since we announced My Chemical Romance would be coming to Eden the response from fans has been incredible.
“We’re delighted to now be able to say they will play an additional show on May the 16th. We’re sure their huge army of fans will be as thrilled as we are at this amazing coup.”
My Chemical Romance were drawn to appear at the home of the world-renowned environmental and educational charity due to Eden’s green credentials and ground-breaking programmes aimed at inspiring and educating people about humanity’s reliance on the natural world.
The band formed in Newark, New Jersey, and made their debut in 2002 with the independently released album I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love.
They signed to Reprise Records the following year and made their major label debut with Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge in 2004. The album contained the Platinum hit I'm Not Okay (I Promise), the Gold-certified Helena, and The Ghost of You.
The three-times Platinum The Black Parade was hailed by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the top albums of 2006. The lead single Welcome to the Black Parade topped both Billboard's Alternative Songs tally and the UK Official Singles Chart.
The band toured extensively behind the album - appearing as characters from The Black Parade - and released the live album The Black Parade is Dead! in 2008.
Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys was released in 2010 and topped Billboard's Alternative Albums and Top Rock Albums charts. It was followed by a series of singles later released as Conventional Weapons in 2013.
Tickets for the My Chemical Romance Eden Session on Monday May 16, 2022, cost £65 plus a £7.80 booking fee and go on sale to Inside Track passholders on Monday December 6 at 12 noon. Tickets go on general sale at 10 am on Friday December 10.
