After kicking off 2024 with a sell-out show in Belfast, Scotland’s alternative blues troubadour Dave Arcari embarks an a series of four live dates south of the border including a show at Barnoldswick Music and Arts Centre on Friday February 9th.

The popular performer plays Newcastle the night before, then after his Barnoldswick debut continues to Oxford on Saturday 10th and Brecon on Sunday February 11th.

The dates follow the recent release of his latest album Devil May Care on limited edition red vinyl and a new single, Younger Days – a curve ball that sees Arcari injecting a little bit of Americana into his more familiar deep blues sound.

Arcari said he was delighted to be coming to play at the Barnoldswick live music venue in Rainhall Road.
