Live concert by Irish traditional music star Nathan Carter and his band at The Alban Arena.
Nathan Carter and his band are playing The Alban Arena on Friday 26 February 2027, starting at 19:30. He's an Irish musician who works in traditional Irish music, and he'll be bringing his full band with him for the night.
His background is a bit of a journey. Born in Liverpool in 1990, he picked up the piano accordion when he was four and later became head chorister of The Liverpool Boys' Choir. That early love of traditional Irish music led him to join the Liverpool Ceili band, and in January 2010 he moved to Ireland to work as a professional entertainer. Since then, he's been credited with helping to revive the country's live music scene.
He became an established Irish star after his version of 'Wagon Wheel' took off in 2012, which outsold One Direction and Drake and helped him record six number-one albums in Ireland. Among them is The Best of the First Ten Years, released in November 2020, which was his top-selling album and features his own original, 'Wings to Fly'.
