About: kneecap

Formed in Belfast in 2017, Mo Chara, Móglaí Bap and DJ Próvaí have built one of the most talked-about live acts in Europe - rapping in Irish and English, with a stage show that mixes anarchic energy, sharp political commentary and full-throttle rave. Their Fenian Tour brings the second album to Helsinki in June 2026.
