Laura Elizabeth Hughes announces Irish tour dates

A springtime tour is on the cards for Dubliner Laura Elizabeth Hughes, a young artist who first came to the public's attention with some well-chosen Youtube covers and has spent the past year earning her stripes on the live circuit.

Kicking off in Kerry with a Lumiere support slot, she'll play the likes of Cork, Dublin and Galway over the couple of weeks. A good chance to see a promising new talent in a town near you. Here are the dates:

Fri March 28: INEC Acoustic Room Killarney (supporting Lumiere), Kerry
Sat March 29: Cyprus Avenue, Cork
Wed April 2: The Sky & the Ground, Wexford
Thurs April 3: Whelan’s Upstairs, Dublin

Sat April 5: Roisin Dubh, Galway
Mon April 7: Boyles Pub, Slane, Meath

Tickets for Whelan’s show are €11 and are available from Ticketmaster. Tickets for all shows go on sale Tuesday 18 February from venue box offices.
