We were in Owen’s corner from the start and still like his blues-inflected but individual approach to songwriting. Now he plans to be out and about with his latest material…
The Shrewsbury singer will play 11-dates across the UK throughout October this year. His tour will finish with a headline show at the iconic London venue the 100 Club on Wednesday 24th October 2018.
A full list of dates, venues and ticket links can be found below.
Dan will be touring in support of his forthcoming debut album ‘Stay Awake With Me’, out on Friday 17th August 2018 via Atlantic Records. The album features the critically acclaimed singles ‘Made To Love You’, ‘Icarus’, ‘Hideaway’, ‘What Is A Man’ and ‘Moonlight’.
You can watch the official piano acoustic video for ‘Icarus’ in this article.
Regarding the record Dan says, “This is my first album. I like to think of it as a collection of personal stories and experiences. I feel like this is what I have been working for since I first picked up a guitar at 8 years old. A lot has happened since then and these songs cover some of the high and low points for me and some of those closest to me. I am really grateful to everyone who has been a part of the process and I couldn’t be more proud of the result.”
‘Made To Love You’ has amassed over 12 million streams on Spotify, while ‘Icarus’, ‘Hideaway’ and ‘What Is A Man’ have all proved hits at radio with support for the singles coming from Radio 2, Radio 1 and Virgin Radio.
‘Stay Awake With Me’ is informed by the 25 year-old’s journey through life, which has seen him sell out numerous headline shows across the UK and Europe, perform for politicians at Westminster and party with Willie Nelson in Nashville. Inspired by life-changing moments such as helping a friend through a period of domestic abuse, the loss of his grandfather and a tragic carpentry accident which left Dan blind in one eye, his songwriting is touching hearts across the world.

- What Is A Man
