Starting this week, Placebo will premiere full festival performances from across their career. In the wake of a whole summer of festival appearances being cancelled due to Coronavirus, the Placebo vaults have been opened to give us a string of iconic festival sets, rarely seen\u00a0since their first recording.\u00a0Footage dates all the way back to their debut album era in 1996 and, running for the next 6 weeks, completes in 2015 as the band toured their most recent album \u2018Loud Like Love\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first of the festival sets to premiere will be Phoenix Festival \u201996, which took place in Stratford Upon Avon, UK. Placebo had just released their self-titled debut album and took to \u201cThe Phoenix Stage\u201d itself, ahead of that day\u2019s headliner, David Bowie. The set premieres on the band\u2019s YouTube channel\u00a0this Friday August 14th\u00a0\u2013 subscribe to the band’s channel\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0and make sure to set a reminder for each following premiere. Exclusive merch will also be available for fans\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band offered the following comment about the upcoming online tour:\u00a0\u201cWe were very disappointed that we couldn’t play live for you this summer, but even so we wanted to go on tour. To replace us playing\u00a0in person, we dug out some videos from the archives and are hosting our own \u2019summer tour.’ These are the \u2018Lost Tapes\u2019, a series of\u00a0festival concerts spanning 24 years, some never seen before. Each will premiere on YouTube so subscribe, set reminders and whatever\u00a0else you need to prepare. We\u2019ll see you there!!

Lotsa love,
