Scottish Singer-Songwriter Amy Macdonald Brings Intimate Acoustic Tour To Parr Hall Next Month

Scottish singer-songwriter Amy Macdonald is bringing her special intimate acoustic tour to Parr Hall next month.

The Warrington show is one of a handful of extra dates announced earlier this year to follow a sold-out UK tour and coincide with the release of her single Down by the Water.

Amy, who has just enjoyed a busy festival season playing to huge crowds across Europe, said: "It has been such a crazy year.

"The music industry has changed so drastically that I didn't quite know what to expect, but I have to say I'm blown away by the strength of the live music scene.

"I feel like this year has been my busiest year ever for live shows; I have been all over the place playing so many amazing places in front of so many wonderful fans.

"Something that has struck me this year is the really positive feedback I've received from the stripped down part of the shows.

"I always worried that people would get bored without my band thrashing away in the background but it's been quite the opposite.

"The same goes for the feedback on my new album Under Stars. People seemed to be most excited by the stripped down acoustic songs.

Described as "uplifting power-pop indie" by Metro and "extraordinary... Macdonald's strongest album since her 2007 debut", Under Stars reached No 2 in the UK album charts and is Amy's fourth top 5 album in the UK.

This success has been equalled internationally, with the album also debuting at No 2 and No 1 in the German and Swiss album charts respectively.

Tickets for the Parr Hall show on Thursday 2 November are on sale now.
