Gerry Cinnamon has announced a massive open air show at Cardiff Castle next summer.
The show, on Saturday, May 30, marks an incredible rise for the Scottish musician, who only in March this year was playing the Tramshed in Cardiff.
A further show at Cardiff Motorpoint Arena earlier this month saw him sell out the 7,000 capacity venue in minutes.
Now he'll return to the Welsh capital for his biggest gig yet in Wales as part of a summer UK tour, which will culminate in a hometown gig at Glasgow's Hampden Park - where all 50,000 tickets sold-out the same day they went on sale.
The continuing ascent of the singer-songwriter is one of contemporary music’s most outstanding stories.
Rising from a self-released debut album, the word-of-mouth sensation has become a stadium and arena-filling headliner. And as an artist whose revealing and honest songs naturally connect with a huge and devoted audience, he’s achieved it all entirely independently.
News of the musician's biggest shows yet add to what has been a phenomenal year for the Scot.
His Glastonbury set saw the John Peel Stage rammed to capacity, with fans spread out far beyond the confines of the tent. And back home in Glasgow, he co-headlined the TRNSMT Festival alongside Stormzy. Such scenes resulted in him winning Best Live Act at the AIM Independent Music Awards, an accolade that was decided by a public vote.
Recent months have seen Gerry preview the release of his new album ‘The Bonny’ to be released next April, with some new material in the shape of ‘Canter’, ‘Sun Queen’ and ‘Dark Days’.
The Bonny’ follows his Top 20 debut album ‘Erratic Cinematic’, which has been certified Gold in recognition of more than 120,000 sales. He’s already exceeded 127 million plays on Spotify.
