SAINt JHN announces 2022 headline show at Dublin's Academy

General release tickets for SAINt JHN's Dublin Academy gig will go on sale this Friday, November 5th at 10am.

Platinum recording artist SAINt JHN has announced his “IN CASE WE BOTH DIE YOUNG” 2022 EU/UK dates, including a gig at Dublin's Academy on February 24th, 2022.

While SAINt JHN is still in the first quarter of his US tour, he is also preparing for his international jaunt at the turn of the new year. He'll kick off the tour with a gig on January 31st in Helsinki, running through March 4th and concluding in Moscow.

Growing up, Carlos St. John Phillips (aka SAINt JHN) split his time in three year intervals between Guyana and the neighbourhood of East New York in Brooklyn. In 2016, he released his first song under the moniker, Saint Jhn, entitled '1999'. He followed that with two more songs in 2016, 'Roses' and 'Reflex". In October 2016, it was announced that Saint Jhn would open up for Post Malone during a run of West Coast shows.

He later became a Gucci campaign model and played Rolling Loud and the Voodoo Experience festivals.

The Guyanese-American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer released his first album, Collection One, in March 2018. He is best known for the 2019 deep house remix of his 2016 song 'Roses' by Kazakh DJ Imanbek. The remix reached the top 5 of the US Billboard Hot 100 and topped the charts in Australia, the Netherlands, Ireland, New Zealand, and the UK.

The song became the lead single for Saint Jhn's debut album, While the World Was Burning, which was released in late 2020. The album includes the songs 'High School Reunion, Prom' featuring Lil Uzi Vert'; 'Monica Lewinsky, Election Year' - featuring DaBaby and A Boogie wit da Hoodie - as well as 'Pray 4 Me' featuring Kanye West.

The talent has written songs for Jidenna, Usher, Hoodie Allen, and Kiesza, among others. He is a founding member of the Gødd Complexx music collective. His most recent single is 'Ay Caramba' alongside Clintn lord and Lotus.
