When Dave blasted onto the scene with single ‘Thiago Silva’ in 2016, he quickly soared to legend status. That track was named one of grime’s most impactful songs of the 2010s, then his 2018 song ‘Question Time’ won an Ivor Novello Award and his 2019 debut studio album Psychodrama earned him the Mercury Prize and had the most first-week streams for a UK rap album to date.
Nearly a decade on, the Brixton-born rapper is releasing third studio album The Boy Who Played the Harp. And now, Dave has revealed that he’ll be heading on a huge tour to go with it.
In his first major tour since 2022, Dave will be stopping by arenas across the UK and Europe next year. This is everything you need to know if you want to get your hands on tickets.
