Following on from their ecstatically received Electric Picnic appearance last September, Dexys play their first headlining Dublin show in many a year on May 2 in the Olympia. Tickets are €33.90 and go on sale on Friday February 15.

As well as performing a selection of their Midnight Runner-era hits – the 20th anniversary Searching For The Young Soul Rebels reissue is superglued to the HP office stereo at the mo – Kevin Rowland & Co. will be dipping into their excellent current album, One Day I’m Going To Soar.
