Red Hot Chili Peppers announce comeback concert

London, Nov 13

American alternate rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers (RHCP) have announced a comeback concert after over a yearlong hiatus.

The rockers went on a break in 2008 after 25 years together, but have said they will play the charity concert MusiCares 2010 Jan 29 next year, honouring singing legend Neil Young for his services to the musicians' charity, reports contactmusic.com.

Three members of the group played the same concert earlier this year that was honouring RHCP frontman Anthony Kiedis, but this will be the first time the whole group will play together since they completed the last leg of their 'StadiumArcadium Tour'.

In May 2008, Kiedis announced the band was taking a break of "at least a year".

"We're disbanded for the moment. We actually took a very long time to make the 'Stadium Arcadium' record...it took forever. It was really a gruelling, long haul and it followed two other very long hauls, 'Californication' and 'By the Way'," he had said.

The "Under the bridge" hitmakers returned to the studio last month to record their follow-up album to 2006s 'Stadium Arcadium' which, according to drummer Chad Smith, will be released next year.
