Paolo Nutini has announced a new UK and European tour for 2022 - with two shows in Scotland.
The Scots singer has had fans on the edge of their seats waiting for news of live dates across the country.
The Iron Sky star's last appearance onstage was five years ago, in his hometown when he performed at Paisley Abbey in April 2017.
Last week he announced a few concerts across the UK ahead of his appearance at TRNSMT festival in Glasgow on July 8.
These included two intimate gigs in Oban.
But today he has unveiled details of his first major tour in years, kicking off in Ireland on August 21.
It includes a London performance at the historic Alexandra Palace as well as two shows north of the border.
He will play Edinburgh's O2 Academy on October 31 and Aberdeen Music Hall on November 1.
News of the tour follows the recent announcement that his new album ‘Last Night In The Bittersweet’ will be released on July 1 .
Fans who pre-order ‘Last Night In The Bittersweet’ by 3pm BST on Monday, May 23 will receive exclusive access to a pre-sale for tour tickets.
The album pre-sale will open at 9am BST, Tuesday, May 24 via Ticketmaster.
Remaining tickets go on general sale HERE from 9am BST on Wednesday, May 25.
Last week Paolo released ‘Lose It’ and ‘Through The Echoes’ - the two songs provide a taste of what to expect from ‘Last Night In The Bittersweet’ .
Paolo’s fourth studio album is a 70-minute epic that spans the distance from classic rock to post-punk to hypnotic Krautrock, in the process proving its value as his deepest, most varied, most accomplished, and ultimately most rewarding set so far.
Paolo is also confirmed to perform on Later…with Jools Holland, on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer on Saturday, June 11.
