The tour is in celebration of Example’s stellar 15-year career, and each show will see him play a 90-minute set of classics and new cuts, spanning from 2007 until his most recent album, las year’s We May Grow Old But We Never Grow Up.

The singer, songwriter, rapper and producer also owns a UK number one album thanks to Playing In The Shadows, one of three top 10 appearances there.

Across his recording career, Example has collaborated with the likes of Calvin Harris, Pet Shop Boys, and Australia’s own What So Not, and earned production credits from Chase & Status, and Sub Focus.
