Ireland conspicuous in its absence from list of 2015 stops
It seems as though the Kodaline boys can't get enough of major announcements these days.
First came the announcement and premiere of new single 'Honest', then the confirmation of Coming Up For Air, the eagerly awaited LP which will see the light of day in February.
Now, the band have revealed a European tour for February and March of next year, details of which can be perused below.
Of course, it doesn't take a genius to spot the major absentee from the list; as yet, there are no Irish dates scheduled. Of course, the lads will be leading the festivities in Dublin on New Year's Eve, but it wouldn't surprise too many if they're 'pulling a U2', and waiting on announcing details of Irish shows to come in 2015...
Kodaline make a most welcome return today with their stunning new single ‘Brother’, which is a song that easily sits among their very best.

So how come they are the most unlikely fuhrers in the history of rock?
