Manchester rapper Aitch embarks on extensive UK and Ireland tour

Platinum-selling Manchester rapper Aitch kicks off his hotly-anticipated headline tour Close to Home this October supporting the release of his debut album of the same name. The album features popular singles ‘Baby (feat. Ashanti)’ and ‘My G (feat. Ed Sheeran)’ which he wrote for his sister Gracie, as well as the titular track ‘Close to Home’ with the chorus sung by The Kids Choir. This album has a more personal and mature feel than some of his previous releases while maintaining his cheeky and cocky personality throughout.

This year, Aitch made Forbes’ ‘30 under 30’ list. He also became an ambassador for the Down Syndrome Association charity. His single ‘Baby’ hit platinum and charted at number two in both the UK Singles Chart and the UK Hip-Hop / R&B chart. 

The Close to Home tour will visit 16 venues in the UK and Ireland, before closing with two hometown shows in Manchester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse at the end of the month. Aitch will play Birmingham’s O2 Academy on Monday 17 October. The Close to Home tour will hit Europe early next year.

Ticket availability is limited, with some Ticketmaster resale tickets available for the Birmingham date.
