APRIL'S shows were amazing and Dave's 100 Club debut in London is a highlight of the year so far (see video above).
The Ireland tour kicks off in Clonakilty on Friday 2 May – but first there's session and interview to be broadcast at 8pm tonight (Thursday 1 May) on Ralph McLean's Rock & Soul show on BBC Radio Ulster. You can listen live (or probably 'again' later on too!) via BBC iPlayer here.
Then there's a handful of UK shows before the US tour – there's still dates to be confirmed and any venues/promoters in the US wanting to arrange a show should contact Janet at Bad Blood Productions.
The new 'Dave Arcari' signature bottleneck slides have been selling like hot cakes at shows...custom-sized bottlenecks, along with vinyl, mugs, t-shirts and other merch, are available via the online shop ;-)
