“There’s nothing like performing in front of your home crowd, especially when it’s been a while,” says McCartney. “I can’t wait to finish the year on such a high by partying in Liverpool, Glasgow and London. We’ve freshened up the show since our last time round and we are excited to get to play some of our new songs along side some of the favourites.”
