Since the release of his debut album 21 st Century Liability in 2018, Yungblud has fast become the voice of a generation.

His latest single, ‘Lemonade’ feat Denzel Curry dropped last week, with a second album due later this year.

Biffy Clyro previously headlined Bellahouston Park in 2016, a show which The Guardian described as a “triumphant set from champions of stadium rock.” This new date represents a huge homecoming show for the band and adds to a touring schedule which includes the intimate and sold-out ‘Fingers Crossed Tour’ plus a Saturday night headline set at Download Festival.

The 23-year-old singer, whose real name is Dominic Harrison, comes from a rich Doncaster musical pedigree.

His dad Justin Harrison ran Doncaster’s famed Music Ground guitar shop for many years alongside grandfather Rick Harrison, who performed with T-Rex in the 1970s.

Before beginning his musical career, he studied arts and acting and appeared in episodes of Yorkshire farming soap Emmerdale.

He has performed shows all over the world, including the prestigious Leeds and Reading Festivals and was shortlisted for the BBC’s Sound Of award.

He is also a keen activist, attending the March For Our Lives rally, a student-led demonstration rally against gun violence after the events of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.

He also attended four days of the George Floyd protests for Black Lives Matter in California in the United States.

On the first three days he attended with his ex-girlfriend, Halsey and the pair also gave first aid to protesters injured in a Santa Monica protest.
