James Arthur announces 14 date UK tour in March after incredible comeback success with Say You Won’t Let Go
The X Factor star continues to enjoy renewed chart success
X Factor star James Arthur is heading on a 14 date UK tour next year.
The Say You Won't Let Go hitmaker will hit the road in December to perform a series of intimate gigs before embarking on his nationwide tour.
James is set to go straight to number one with his second album, Back From The Edge, on Sunday as he continues to enjoy renewed pop success.
He revealed his joy at the tour news as he tweeted to fans: "SO excited to announce that I will be doing a UK tour in March 2017! Tickets go on sale this FRIDAY! #BackFromTheEdgeTour."
Back in 2014, James had suffered a fall from grace after being dropped by Simon Cowell’s record label following his offensive public outbursts on Twitter.
James battled depression and drug problems over the years, but eventually got his life back on track
And now the X Factor star has made a surprise return to the charts as he saw his single, Say You Won't Let Go soar to the top of the charts after winning back his Syco contract.
The single was released in September and quickly shot to the top spot on iTunes and Spotify, followed by the Official Charts where it sat at number one, for three consecutive weeks.
James became the first British lead artist to hold the No1 spot for more than one week this year and was also confirmed as the best selling British singles artist in 2016.
The single has also topped the charts in Australia and Ireland and the track has already started to make waves in the US!
Tickets for the tour go on sale on Friday morning.
