Following their spellbinding performance at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö, Bambie Thug (they/them/fae) has announced their huge debut European headline tour. The ‘Crown The Witch’ tour will kick off in Brighton on August 30th, and see Bambie perform 28 headline dates across Europe, including London, Dublin, Amsterdam and more.
The tour will culminate with a huge homecoming show at the Cork City Hall on November 7th 2024.
Speaking about the tour announcement, Bambie Thug said: “So excited to bring Ouija Pop to so many countries on my first ever headline run with ‘Crown The Witch Tour’. Expect magic, music and more. Look forward to welcoming you into the coven x”
The ‘Crown The Witch’ tour follows Bambie Thug’s triumph in Malmö where they placed sixth place in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 with their entry Doomsday Blue, receiving a total of 278 points - becoming Ireland’s highest scoring entry ever and best result in 24 years. Bambie Thug also made history becoming the first openly non-binary contestant to qualify for the final and the first Irish contestant to qualify since 2018. Following the contest, ‘Doomsday Blue’ has flooded charts globally, reaching the top 40 in Ireland (#23), Lithuania (#9), Greece (#12), Finland (#40), landing in the top 10 of the Global Viral 50 on Spotify, as well as earning their first UK chart entry at #67. Bambie’s performance of Doomsday Blue has received rave reviews from fans and press worldwide, being hailed as a “gothic showstopping performance” by Daily Mail and so far amassed over 12M streams on Spotify alone.
Cork-born alt disruptor Bambie Thug (they/them/fae) is smashing through gender and socio-political stereotypes to create an era-defining sound that borders on elements of pop, rock, electronic and more. Self-coining the term ‘Ouija-pop’ to describe their sound, Bambie Thug has made serious waves in the last couple years with a series of genre-defying singles and a critically acclaimed EP ‘CATHEXIS’. Bambie represented Ireland at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest with their spellbinding entry ‘Doomsday Blue’, finishing at 6th place – the highest placement for an Irish act in 24 years. With a visual artistry equally as striking as their musical breath, their witchy aesthetic and strong cinematic videos have seen them transform into otherworldly characters such as ‘HIM’ from The Powerpuff Girls and a vampire bride. No stranger to the big stage, Bambie has torn up festival stages across the world including Download Festival, The Great Escape and Trans Musicales to much critical acclaim. Their show stopping performances have been described as “a genderqueer, occult-tinged, strikingly theatrical edge” and they have received ongoing global support from the likes of NME, Kerrang!, Rolling Stone UK, GAY TIMES, BBC Radio 1, Spotify, Amazon Music and more.
