The UK’s best-selling country act hits York next year.

The Shires released their new single New Year last month. Alongside the release came an announcement of a long 26 date tour where they’ll returning to play at York Barbican in May 2020.

The UK country stars first made a mark in 2015, after their debut album Brave was the first country album to enter the UK top ten.

Their second album, My Universe, became the fastest-selling British country album of all time and grasped top three in the UK chart.

The latest album, Good Years, was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee; the homeland of country music alongside their other albums, is set to be released in March.
