The Script have been confirmed on the bill of this year’s V Festival. Held annually in the United Kingdom, the festival takes place at two parks simultaneously and share the same bill – those parks being Hylands Park in Chelmsford and Weston Park in South Staffordshire. Bands and artists perform at one location on Saturday and then swap on Sunday.
Set to take place August 17 and August 18, the festival dates will come a few months after the band’s UK tour in March, which will hit 12 cities and towns.
Fresh off the success of their newest album, #3, The Script will take over the UK in March 2013 with a 12-date arena tour. Loved by both The Voice UK fans and heavyweight artists like U2 and Paul McCartney, The Script have established themselves as soft rockers who are here to stay.
When frontman Danny O’Donoghue isn’t in the studio or on tour, you can find him coaching contestants on The Voice UK alongside fellow judges, Jessie J, will.i.am, and Tom Jones. Just this week, the band’s collaboration with will.i.am led them to a #1 spot on the new top forty, and their album #3 has debuted just behind The XX‘s Coexist . Tickets for the 2013 tour go on sale this Friday, September 21st at 9:30am, so mark your calendars!
