Jimmy Webb will perform at Dublin's Vicar Street on Thursday, June 11.

The American songwriter, composer and singer's timeless hist continue to be performed and recorded by the industry's biggest names and his new compositions span the musical spectrum from classical to pop.

This past year saw his 'Wichita Lineman' on the set list in three major artist tours – Guns N’ Roses, Little Big Town, and Toby Keith – and used prominently in an episode of the Netflix series Ozark. Not many artists can say they premiered a classical nocturne and had a rap hit with Kanye West (“Do What You Gotta Do,” a central hook in “Famous”) in the same year, but Jimmy’s career is full of surprises. Since his first platinum record The Worst That Could Happen, Webb has had numerous hits including 'Up, Up and Away,' and 'By the Time I Get to Phoenix.'

Webb is the only artist ever to have received Grammy Awards for music, lyrics and orchestration. His numerous accolades include the prestigious Ivor Novella International Award (2012) and the Academy of Country Music’s Poet Award (2016). In 2016, Rolling Stone listed Webb as one of the top 50 songwriters of all time. He was the youngest member ever inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, served as its Chairman and has also served proudly as the Vice Chair of ASCAP. Time and again Webb has paved the way for songwriters in an ever-changing media landscape, spearheading the ongoing effort to preserve the rights of songwriters and their intellectual property in the digital age.

Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday, February 7 via Ticketmaster.
