English post-Britpop band Starsailor have announced two Irish headline gigs for December, namely Belfast’s Limelight on December 3 and Dublin’s The Academy on December 4.

The gigs come as part of a 25 years anniversary tour that will kick of on the Isle of Man on October 1, with stops in Paris, Amsterdam, Nottingham, Glasgow and more along the way.

Since debuting in 2000, Starsailor have scored two No.2 hit albums with Love Is Here and Silence Is Easy, through a run of hit singles including ‘Silence Is Easy’, ‘Alcoholic’, ‘Four To The Floor’ and ‘Good Souls’.

We’re thrilled to add the Isle of Man, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland to our 2025 Tour!

They also received an NME Award and performed a major tour with The Rolling Stones, while their most recent album Where The Wild Things Grow hit No.2 on the Official Independent Albums Chart last year.

Since the release of their last record, the band has played a sold-out UK headline tour, a selection of major festivals including the Busan International Rock Festival in South Korea, and performed as guests to Blondie at The Piece Hall in Halifax.
