Scottish star Paolo Nutini is en route to Belsonic – here’s all you …

Paolo Nutini will return to Belfast at Belsonic this Saturday

SCOTTISH music star Paolo Nutini is currently in Ireland and strumming his way towards a date with Belsonic in Belfast on Saturday night.

The Paisley-born singer/songwriter plays a huge show at Cork's Musgrave Park tonight, with a gig at Malahide Castle in Dublin lined-up for Friday night. Both dates are sold out, as is his Belsonic show at Ormeau Park. Support at all the Irish dates comes from Julia Jacklin and New Dad.
