TEENAGE DIRTBAG: Wheatus to play Margate, Kent
Tickets go on sale today for gig at Olby’s Creative Hub in Margate
It’s hard to believe it’s now well over 20 years since Wheatus released their million-selling eponymously titled debut album and still ubiquitous single “Teenage Dirtbag”. Yes, that’s right – “Dirtbag” is no longer a teenager.
The much-loved New York act are thrilled to announce an extensive new UK & Irish headline tour for autumn 2023, stopping at Olby’s Creative Hub in Margate on October 17th.
Pandemics notwithstanding, the six-piece have kept busy these past few years with a seemingly endless run of shows across the globe, but this new autumn 2023 run of dates will be Wheatus’ first gigs on our shores in more than four years.
Wheatus frontman Brendan B Brown says: “We toured the UK, Ireland and Europe eighteen years in a row from 2001-2019, some years more than once. The pandemic has paused that tradition since 2020. This opportunity to return is more precious to us than all the other years combined and we're gonna throw the kitchen sink at it”.
Tickets for the show at Olby’s Creative Hub in Margate on 17th of October, go on-sale Thursday 6th April at 10:00am via https://wheatus.com/shows
