Dublin duo, brothers Harry and Alfie, kicked off 2015 with the long awaited release of their debut album ‘Singing For Strangers’. The record, which includes the critically-acclaimed singles Chasing Rubies, Battles and Weapons, was a top 3 hit in the Irish album charts. 

The Singing For Strangers tour saw the siblings embark on a mammoth run of dates across Ireland and the UK including two hometown headline shows at the Olympia Theatre which were followed up by playing as special guests to Kodaline at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham in summer 2015. Not long before they play this massive gig, they are playing the 3Arena with Walking On Cars.
