Damien Rice rounds off a highly successful year with soirees at The Black Box, Galway (December 3); Olympia, Dublin (7); Limelight, Belfast (15); University Concert Hall, Limerick (18); and Opera House, Cork (22).

The Olympia show just happens to fall on Damien's birthday, so expect all sorts of cake 'n' candle-related hi-jinx.

Fans will also want to grab hold of his new single, 'Volcano', which includes a live version of 'Delicate' and backstage video footage.
