British singer-songwriter Billie Marten has announced shows in Dublin and Belfast as part of her upcoming Dog Eared tour across the UK and Ireland.

Marten will take the Vicar St stage in Dublin on 5 November, followed by a performance at Belfast's Empire Music Hall on 6 November.

Tickets go on sale this Friday, 21st March, at 10am via Ticketmaster.

The news follows a busy year for Marten, having sold-out The Barbican Centre in London, supporting Ben Howard on his UK and IE run and releasing a new single 'Crown'.

The singer-songwriter is fresh from the AU and NZ leg of her tour, which will pick up later this year.

These tour dates follow Billie Marten’s sold-out, headline performance at London’s Barbican Centre, where she collaborated with the free-form string ensemble, Her Ensemble, to deliver orchestral reimaginings of tracks from her four acclaimed studio albums. Renowned for her emotive storytelling and timeless songwriting, Billie continues to captivate audiences globally.

Hailing from North Yorkshire, Billie draws inspiration from English folk traditions, weaving themes of nature, love, and introspection into her music. Since her 2016 debut Writing of Blues and Yellows, she has grown into a distinctive artist, balancing vulnerability with resilience in her lyrics. Songs like 'Vanilla Baby', which has amassed over 32 million streams on Spotify, showcase her lasting appeal.

Her 2021 album Flora Fauna introduced alt-rock elements to her sound, while her latest release, 2023’s Drop Cherries, became her highest first-week seller to date. With this album, Billie embraced a live, one-take recording approach, crafting an intimate exploration of human connection that solidifies her position as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary folk.
