The fella staring wistfully into the distance in the above picture is one of this year's biggest breakthrough Irish artists and he's just announced another gig. Owner of the Meteor Choice Song of the Year in the shape of his hit 'Say Hello', Gavin James will tread the stage at Dublin's Pepper Canister Church on Friday 13th December.

Just 21 years of age, James has already cultivated a glowing reputation for himself through a series of well-crafted songs and lively performances. The 21-year-old has already appeared as support to the likes of Lianne La Havas, Beth Orton and Lewis Watson and we're predicting that James' upward career trajectory will continue for the rest of this year and into the next.

Tix for the show will be available from this Wednesday.
