Placebo comes to Parkorman

English alternative rock band Placebo will take the stage at Istanbul Parkorman within the scope of the Vodafone Istanbul Calling concerts.

Their last studio album, “Battle for the Sun,” released in 2009, went to number one in 10 countries. Placebo also received the MTV Europe Music Award for “Best Alternative” act in the same year. Placebo embarked on their eighth worldwide tour campaign in 15 years, to promote the album performing in 44 countries in 143 shows for over 2.5 million people. It began in Angkor Wat, Cambodia, in December 2008, and ended in London, England in September 2010.

Placebo will return to the studio later in the year to finish record their seventh album, and will be working with producer Adam Noble. Doors will open at 5 p.m. for the concert.
