Supergroup Announces Unfortunate Update on 2026 Shows
Kill the Lights, the metal supergroup fronted by former Throw the Fight member James Clark, announced major changes to their upcoming lineup.
Following their back-to-back shows scheduled for June, the four-piece band informed fans about the cancellation for their upcoming live schedule.
Kill the Lights, which was supposed to perform on the U.K. and Ireland leg of The End Tour as a supporting act for Wolfgang Van Halen's rock band Mammoth, shared the update with fans.
Due to the recent events that struck Belfast, the band has completely cancelled its two supporting shows with Mammoth as well as its two headline shows.
Initially, Clark and the rest of the band, composed of former Bullet for My Valentine members Michael "Moose" Thomas and Jason "Jay" James alongside guitarist Jeremy Pringsheim, were set for a four-date run in June. The upcoming run consists of a June 12 performance in Belfast, followed by shows in Limerick on June 13, Southampton on June 16 and London on June 17.
In an Instagram post, they expressed deep regret and apologies to fans who were looking forward to the concerts.
"It is with heavy hearts that we announce that, following Mammoth's understandable decision to cancel the Belfast show, Kill The Lights will no longer be appearing on the upcoming dates in Belfast, Limerick, Southampton and London. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Belfast and Ireland, and we extend our deepest condolences to the family and loved ones of Stephen Ogilvie during this difficult time. We fully support Mammoth's decision and understand the circumstances surrounding it. While we're disappointed not to be with you as planned, we look forward to returning when these dates can be rescheduled," the caption reads.

Furthermore, Kill The Lights also thanked fans for their patience and understanding following the announcement.
Despite the major setback, the supergroup emphasized its optimism about making a comeback and seeing fans again when the shows are rescheduled.
Prior to the announcement by Kill The Lights, Mammoth also released a statement explaining its "difficult decision" to postpone the show at Limelight and move it to a later date on Dec. 16.
"We can not wait to see our friends in Belfast, but it has to wait until it is safe for everyone. We hope you understand," the band added on its official social media page.
