**Kennedy Street Enterprises present Nathan Carter And his band** Nathan Carter has outsold the likes of Beyonce in Ireland, performed for the Pope, sold out venues across the world and is one of the most prolific touring artists in the UK. And he’s heading back to Dumfries in 2027! Born in Liverpool to Irish parents from County Down, Nathan Carter has released 13 studio albums and 6 live albums, with a sound that traverses pop, Irish folk, country music and timeless ballads. With tracks such as ‘Wagon Wheel’ and ‘I Wanna Dance’ becoming huge hits, he is one of Ireland’s biggest artists, who has outsold One Direction, Pharrell Williams and Michael Bublé. He also became the first Irish country act to reach number 1 in the Irish charts in 2013 after Garth Brooks, six years before. Growing up in a house where Country and Western music filled the air, Nathan was exposed to the classic songs of Johnny Cash, Don Williams and Dolly Parton which firmly rooted themselves in his musical DNA. From the tender age of 4 years old, not only learning to play guitar, piano and accordion, which plays a vital part in his live show, Nathan quickly became head chorister in the Liverpool Boys choir where he toured the world… and even performed in front of the Pope in Rome. Years later, with an astounding career of achievements as he became Ireland’s number 1 entertainer, he would repeat this feat as a star in an incredible full circle moment in 2018, when he performed for the Pope on his historic visit to Ireland at Dublin’s Croke Park stadium. Join us for dinner before the show in Easterbrook Bistro. Call on 01387 219081 or [click here](https://www.easterbrookbistro.co.uk/bar-and-restaurant/) to book. **Tickets** - £35 - + booking fee
