Dermot Kennedy has penned an emotional post reflecting on his early days in the music industry, after landing a gig at one of America's most iconic concert venues.
The Dublin star told his followers on Twitter yesterday that he will be playing in Colorado's legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in the coming weeks. He wrote on Twitter: "I remember about five years ago, I was outside the American embassy in Dublin, nervously waiting to go in to my appointment for my first artist's Visa."
Dermot, who is originally from Rathcoole in Dublin, explained how a requirement for the visa was to write down a "touring plan" for the next five years. He added that his manager had written down Red Rocks as a venue they would play "sometime in the distant future", and now the singer is delighted to announce that he will perform at the venue on May 16.
