Irish band Otherkin are currently touring their debut album OK around all of Europe, having enjoyed some great reviews after it was released in late September this year.

On the tail end of the UK section of their tour before heading off to Rotterdam for a Hallowe’en night gig, the Dublin-formed foursome performed in Camden, London earlier this week.

Following their performance, the group took to Twitter to make a statement about what had occurred during the gig.

This is a properly fantastic public stance for the Irish band to take, and one that should be fully supported and replicated by other performers out there.

Otherkin will be bringing the tour back home to Dublin and Galway on December 15 and 16, respectively. Full details of the tour can be found here.
