Actor David Duchovny, who is probably best known for starring in The X Files, is bringing his band Weather over to Dublin next year to play a gig at The Academy.

Announcing his European tour, David tweeted: "Excited to announce that my band and I are returning to Europe for another tour in 2019. We will be hitting some new cities and some that we’ve played before. Can't wait to see you all again on the road!"

David Duchovny will play The Academy on Wednesday, February 20. Tickets, which are priced €30, go on sale this Frida, 14 September 9am via Ticketmaster.

David Duchovny, who only began playing the guitar a little over a half dozen years ago, released his debut album back in 2015, with his band's second album entitled Every Third Thought being released in 2017.
