Charles Esten will return to the UK and Europe in spring 2024.
The singer-songwriter and actor, best known for his role as Deacon Claybourne on the television show Nashville, will take his Love Ain’t Pretty Tour to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Gateshead, London, Bristol, Salford and Birmingham during April. Following that, he'll play dates in Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark and Norway.
Tickets go on general sale at 9am local time on Friday (November 24). Commenting on the dates, Esten shared in a statement:
"Some of my earliest musical performances were way back in 1991 playing Buddy Holly in the hit West End musical BUDDY. That’s when I began my love affair with UK audiences who - quite literally - danced in the aisles. Four years ago, I was pretty heartbroken when the first COVID lockdowns meant that my debut C2C O2 Arena headline performance was to be cancelled, and ever since that day, I have been dreaming of and praying for a return to the UK.
"That dream first came true in October when I was blessed to be a part of the amazing Nashville Reunion Tour. Then, as that was successfully wrapping up, I received the confirmed schedule for my own return solo tour. And I damn near cried. I am chuffed, over the moon, and thrilled to bits to be returning to play my music in the country that for two magical years, I got my start in and called my home."
The trek shares its name with Esten's debut solo album, due out on January 26.
