Conor Maynard announces Academy show
The English singer, best known for his YouTube presence, will perform at the Dublin venue on 26 October.
26-year-old English singer Conor Maynard will play Dublin’s Academy on Saturday, 26 October.
Maynard is a longtime YouTube creator who broke into the mainstream upon winning MTV’s Brand New for 2012 award seven years ago. He subsequently released a single, ‘Can’t Say No,’ which has since been streamed over 13 million times, and an album, Contrast, which hit No. 1 in the UK.
Today, Maynard’s YouTube channel is nearing 9 million subscribers and continues to churn out viral videos like the “SING OFF” series, in which Maynard and a musical guest perform different snippets of songs over the backing track of a recent hit. In collaboration with pop-rock group The Vamps, Maynard’s SING OFF to the tune of Ed Sheeran’s ‘Shape of You’ has surpassed over 100 million views.
In 2018, Maynard branched out into the world of stage performance with his Broadway debut in Kinky Boots as leading role Charlie Price. He is now working on putting out a new album.
Tickets for Maynard’s Academy gig go on sale this Thursday, 9 May, at 9 am.
