Live Nation Middle East is proud to announce that David Gray will be performing live at the iconic Coca-Cola Arena on October 31st.
The acclaimed British singer-songwriter has captivated audiences worldwide with his distinctive voice, heartfelt lyrics, and timeless hits such as "Babylon," "Sail Away," and "This Year's Love."
With a career spanning over three decades, Gray’s artistry has earned him a Grammy nomination, two Ivor Novello Awards, and over 12 million albums sold globally. David Gray’s story is unlike any other.
He spent almost a decade striving to make a breakthrough, and when it happened, it did so in the biggest way imaginable as White Ladder became one of the best-selling British albums of all time in the UK, featuring a seamless blend of folk, rock, and electronic influences that defined a generation.
David Gray’s live performances are renowned for their emotional intensity and dynamic energy, with each show offering a deeply personal connection to his music.
Fans can expect a mesmerizing setlist that spans his extensive discography, including tracks from his latest album, Skellig, which showcases his continued evolution as a songwriter and musician. Dear Life is Gray’s thirteenth album. It’s the result of “a starburst of songwriting … it just seemed like the gods of songwriting were being kind. The doubting voices didn't turn up.”
An album of emotional crisis and resolution, mortality and faith, reality and illusion, love and heartbreak, magic, science, loss and acceptance.
While it is full of yearning and hope, there is an undercurrent of darkness, a tension between competing forces of hope and despair: a cavalcade of emotions in what is his most lyrically focused collection to-date.
