The news comes as the band get ready to embark on UK dates, which will see them play the likes of Nottingham Rock City on 26th May, Plymouth's Home Park on 27th May this weekend.

After a string of European dates, the Trouble's Coming rockers are also set to return to the UK for the likes of Glastonbury Festival, TRNSMT Festival and a headline set at On The Beach Brighton.

Announcing the news with Radio X's Johnny Vaughan while sitting on Brighton Beach itself, frontman Mike Kerr said: "We are going to play right here, where I'm sat - on Brighton Beach! Live, on the beach, July 29th. So bring your towels. We won't be supplying towels."

Royal Blood have a very special announcement

Speaking of what people could expect from the Brighton Beach show, the frontman added: "I should arrive on a jet-ski and Ben should arrive by helicopter... from Shoreham. I mean, obviously, he'll come by helicopter anyway. Extravagant exits will be a big selling point for this show. One of us could jet-ski in, zip wire out.

"We're bringing a stage, you'll be pleased to know, so we can give people their money's worth. There'll be a stage, there'll be a PA... It'll be very, very loud."
