Both homegrown favourites, Snow Patrol will be giving a sell-out crowd at Dublin Castle the first airing of new album Eyes Open on April 29, the same day that Glen Hansard and his boys will be rocking the Millennium Theatre, Derry.
The date comes as The Frames wrap up their two-month recording stint in France, where they will be laying down tracks for their sixth album, the follow up to Burn The Maps.
Northern Irish one-man-band Duke Special will ably provide the support.
Tickets are €15, €17.50 and €19.50.
