Announcing the news, Kennedy said: "I'm so grateful to be playing two shows in Dublin this December in aid of Pieta and Focus Ireland, two incredible charities.
"Suicide and homelessness are two issues that are sadly so prevalent in Ireland today. There are so many people that badly need our help, especially at this time of year. Please think of them and let’s come together and raise as much money as we can for these extremely important causes."
