'Dance Monkey' comes to Ireland
From busking to headlining: Australian singer-songwriter Tones and I just announced a headlining show at Vicar St. She will take to the stage at the Dublin venue on March 3, 2020.
The over 14s show opens its doors at 7pm. Tickets, priced €23 inclusive of booking fee, go on sale on Friday, October 4 at 9am. Spotify users can access a pre-sale from Wednesday at 9am.
Tones and I is on top of her game, her song 'Dance Monkey' is currently number 1 in the Irish Singles Chart. But only six months ago, she was busking on the streets and living out of a van - a textbook example of a success story.
