As well as seven UK number-one albums and more than 10 million album sales around the world, Kasabian have headlined Glastonbury and been nominated for the Mercury Prize. They return to Dublin this week as part of a European tour. In 2020 the band parted ways with Tom Meighan, their frontman, after it emerged that he was about to be charged with assaulting his partner. (He pleaded guilty.) After a period of uncertainty, the rest of the group decided to continue, with their guitarist Serge Pizzorno taking over vocal duties.[ Kasabian’s Serge Pizzorno on an Oasis reunion: ‘It’s deep.
