Mika opens his Irish account with a March 1 visit to Spirit, Dublin.

Singled out for praise in our ‘Hot For 2007’ issue, the 23-year-old Lebanese-American has been variously compared to Freddy Mercury, Scissor Sisters and Rufus Wainwright.
Due in February, his Life In Cartoon Motion album confirms that the hype is fully justified.
