Arriving just days before his debut at the world-famous Grand Ole Opry on November 4, Bluebird showcases Gareth’s ability to blend heartfelt storytelling with a modern country sound that’s connecting with audiences worldwide. The seven-track project features a special collaboration with GRAMMY Award-winning artist Joss Stone on ‘Look What Your Love Has Done To Me’, alongside fan favourites ‘Born Yesterday’, ‘Long Story Short’, and ‘Shoulders I Stand On’, plus brand-new tracks ‘Stampede’ and the soaring title track ‘Bluebird
Reflecting on the milestone and the release of his new EP, Gareth shared, “‘Bluebird’ is about hope, resilience, and coming home – in every sense of the word. To be releasing this project while preparing for the Opry, and to know my grandpa will be there in the audience, feels like everything is coming full circle.”
Following the Opry, Gareth will return to the UK and Ireland in December for a number of headline dates, including a major show at Belfast’s Ulster Hall and his first-ever hometown performance in Castlederg – before heading to Australia in March 2026 for his debut tour down under.
