With Over Two Million Singles Sold, 800 Million Worldwide Streams and a Platinum Selling Debut Album, Gavin James is back with “Only Ticket Home” and a headline appearance at Daytripper 2019 on Saturday, 1 June.

On Sunday 30 June 2013, Gavin James made his first Irish festival appearance with the opening slot at the first Daytripper in Bolton Street. Very few in that audience would have known who he was, but everyone was impressed by his amazing voice and the quality of his early songs. Fast forward 6 years and Gavin returns to headline Daytripper as a global recording star and one of Ireland’s most successful live acts having sold out the 14,000 capacity 3Arena and performed to a full main stage crowd of 35,000 at this summer’s Electric Picnic, with many calling it the set of the weekend.

Friends, mad heads and countrymen. Lend me your ears. This year be the 40th anniversary of the groupus maximus MADNESS XL. To celebrate, the UK & Ireland will be witness to celebrations of Romanesque proportions as Madness now unveil plans for 2019 that will make it one of the biggest yet for the legendary, evergreen, band. Fresher of face and fleeter of foot than ever, it’s hard to believe 2019 will mark forty years since a rag tag of self-proclaimed ‘hoolies and urchins’ first emerged, gloriously unreconstructed from the back streets of Camden Town fusing reggae, punk and pop on their classic album ‘One Step Beyond’.
