With one of the most eagerly anticipated album releases of 2024 less than a month away, it is time to get excited for the third chapter of Declan McKenna‘s journey.
Four years on from his incredible sophomore album, Zeros, McKenna will release “What Happened To The Beach?” on February 9th.
At just 25, Declan has demonstrated songwriting capabilities way beyond his years, after breaking through as a teenager with debut album, “What Do You Think About The Car?”.
While Zeros was experimental and a mature follow-up, latest single releases, Sympathy, Nothing Works, and Elevator Hum are evidence of an artist at the top of his game.
And you can see the new show on the live stage between February and April, as Declan McKenna heads out on two UK tours.
The first comprises 10 intimate album launch shows, including dates in Leeds, Edinburgh, Dundee, and Hull.
Then he will head out on a full 17-date UK & Ireland headline tour when the album will be fully digested by his loyal fanbase.
This kicks off on March 23rd and includes Declan’s biggest headline show to date at London’s Alexandra Palace on April 12th.
The full list of dates in February, March, and April are listed below.
