James is set to take off on a world tour tomorrow following his profoundly successful sophomore studio-album Only Ticket Home, which was released last October (find the full album review here).

Lucky for us, the 27-year-old has more than a few upcoming shows scheduled in his homeland. James will play Live At The Big Top in Limerick on April 10; Cork Opera House on April 11; Olympia Theatre on April 17, 18 and 19; and Ulster Hall Belfast on April 10.

James graced the cover of Hot Press last November and spoke about the album in an exclusive interview with Stuart Clark. Read the full interview here.
