Ryan Bingham has just confirmed a Dublin visit to play Vicar Street on 26th October 2015.

Ryan Bingham returns to Dublin with his full band, following his recent sold out Whelan’s show. The gig at Vicar Street is in support of his new album “Fear And Saturday Night”.

Ryan Bingham relocated in the mountains of California a few months ago, to work on his recently released album, “Fear and Saturday Night”. “It gave me the space and time to tap into myself,” Bingham says of the experience. “Up there, it was totally isolated. No phones, no noise, no lights. At night the only thing you’d hear is the bugs and the coyotes. It’s lonely when you get back up in there and there’s nobody around, but for me, I kind of grew up that way in the middle of nowhere. Since I’ve started touring, I’m surrounded by people all the time, so getting back to the roots of everything, that’s really where I seem to find stuff that’s meaningful when I’m writing songs.”

Listen to “The Weary Kind”, the song taken from his recent album, that became the centerpiece of the 2010 film ‘Crazy Heart’. “The Weary Kind” brought Ryan an Academy Award, a Golden Globe, and a Grammy.

Tickets for Ryan Bingham at Vicar Street priced €25 (including booking fee) go on sale this Wednesday, 18th February.
