Good Day in Irish minds as SZA announces Malahide Castle gig this Summer

Singer-songwriter SZA has announced a show at Malahide Castle on July 3.

Tickets are from €84.90 and will be on sale from Friday, March 15 from 10am from HERE. 

A distinct force in contemporary R&B, SZA has set herself apart with a vulnerable and casually poetic songwriting style and a voice conveying a multitude of emotions with subtle twists and turns

She established herself with a trio of spaced-out EPs and collaborations with the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Nicki Minaj, and Rihanna, and continued her ascent with Ctrl (2017), a Top Ten album that resulted in five Grammy nominations, including Best New Artist.

These accolades proved to be no fluke, as SZA earned almost as many Grammy nominations the next year by assisting Kendrick Lamar with ‘All the Stars’, a Top Ten hit, only one in a slew of platinum singles she has scored as a headliner or featured artist.

Her rich and complex second album, SOS (2022), went straight to No.1 on the Billboard 200, produced four Top Ten pop singles – including the chart-topping revenge fantasy ‘Kill Bill’ – and earned the artist three Grammy awards.

On March 2 SZA was also crowned ‘International Artist of the Year’ at the BRIT Awards 2024. 

Last June, as part of her international SOS tour, SZA performed four back-to-back nights at Dublin’s 3Arena, London's O2 Arena, as well as nights in Glasgow and Manchester, to an incredible critical reception, with many highlighting SZA’s vocals and the stunning set design.

Now, the acclaimed US R&B superstar is making a triumphant return to Dublin for her Malahide Castle show, and we are counting down the days.
