Nathan Carter is one of the biggest names on the Irish music scene and is fast becoming a big name all over the UK with his fine performances that include the mega hit song Wagon Wheel and tonight he plays at The Regent Centre.

Nathan and his band perform a great variety of country, Irish, pop and ballads - music for everyone of all ages.

Nathan is an expert accordion player so you can expect a bit of hand clapping, foot tapping hooley as well and this friendly and good looking young man will perform a superbly entertaining show that will make you want to see him again.

Nathan performs an array of original songs and covers which show the tone and range of his vocal ability which, on occasion emotes clearly his own passion for the songs and what being Irish means to him.

Nathan is not your run of the mill pop star. Yes, he has youth and model looks, and an army of female fans, many new-to-the-scene boy bands crave. It is what he performs that sets him apart from his peers - Irish country music with a fine voice which stands apart whether complimented with his live band or with solo piano accompaniment.

It suggests that he divides people with this genre, but that is far from the truth as the demographic which attends his sold-out arena dates in Ireland, or UK venues are full of teenagers, their parents and grandparents, and more importantly, it crosses beyond Irish diaspora.

In Ireland, Nathan outsold One Direction, Pharrell Williams and Michael Buble, and became the first country act to reach number one in the Irish charts in 2013 after Garth Brooks, six years before.

He topped the Irish charts with his fifth album Where I Wanna Be, and again with his recent Irish disc Livin’ The Dream. Not bad for the cherubic former head choirboy who sang for Pope John Paul ll in Rome.
