After a sold-out show on his last visit, acclaimed Newbury singer-songwriter Joe Hicks returns to Arlington Arts to celebrate the release of his new album Before It Gets Dark.Blending intricate guitar composition and soaring falsetto with classic pop song-craft, Hicks released his first solo single at the start of 2017 following a soul searching writing trip to a secluded Cornish Airbnb garage with no internet or phone signal. Since then, Joe has steadily built an online following (+5 million Spotify Streams) and toured the UK and Europe, including appearances at CarFest, the Big Feastival, Are You Listening? Festival, Pub in the Park, over 30 Sofar Sounds shows and slots supporting Sam Fender, Seafret, James Walsh and Starsailor.
Following the release of his critically acclaimed debut album The Best I Could Do at the Time in 2022, Joe’s music received airplay on BBC Radio 2 and BBC Introducing, being named the latter’s ‘Artist of the Week’, while gaining press support from CLASH Magazine, Manchester Evening News and Blues Matters Magazine among many other titles.
