Bon Iver have announced today that they will be taking up a four date residency in London, in February next year.
The residency will be held at Hammersmith’s famous Eventim Appollo- which recently hosted the annual Mercury Prize, seeing Sampha taking home the coveted prize. Justin Vernon and co. will be playing on February 21, 22, 25, and 26.

In a post on the band’s official Twitter, Bon Iver confirmed that those who had tickets for the previously cancelled date at Camden’s Roundhouse in February 2017 will be able to get tickets from this Wednesday, as opposed to when tickets go on general sale on October 3.
The band themselves are currently still partaking in a European tour, which sees them playing Blackpool’s Opera House tonight, before heading further North for two dates at Edinburgh’s Playhouse, on September 27, and 28, respectively.
At a gig in Cork, Ireland earlier this month, Vernon was joined onstage by Aaron and Bryce Dessner of The National, who performed ’33 ‘GOD”, and ‘The Wolves (Act I and II)’ with the band. Irish folk singer Fionn Regan also made an appearance, for a rendition of ‘00000 Million’, as well as his own track’Abacus. You can see the full set below.
Vernon has since returned the favour to the national, appearing onstage with the band-who recently released their seventh album Sleep Well Beast, to much acclaim.
