With their seventh studio album, Satellites, released last month (August), The Script are gearing up for a landmark year and are poised to deliver an unforgettable night in front of the Eden Project Biomes. The show will mark their second performance at the iconic venue.
Formed in Dublin in 2006, The Script—fronted by Danny O’Donoghue, known for his role as a coach on the first two series of The Voice UK, and featuring drummer Glen Power—have become one of the most successful bands of their generation, with bassist Ben Sargeant and guitarist Ben Weaver joining them for live performances.
With more than 10 billion streams, 12 million albums sold, and six UK Number One albums, their blend of emotive alt-pop and soaring anthems has earned them a dedicated, arena-filling, global following.
Recent years have also been marked by emotional highs and lows, with the tragic passing of their long-time guitarist and band co-founder Mark Sheehan in 2023 deeply impacting both the band and their fanbase. In his memory, the band has continued on, channelling their emotion into their music and live performances and creating a deeply personal yet defiant new era for The Script.
The band is well known for tracks such as The Man Who Can’t Be Moved (2008), a global hit from their self-titled debut album, and Hall of Fame (2012), featuring will.i.am, which topped charts worldwide.
Both Ways, the lead single from their latest album, is a funky, upbeat fusion of hip-hop and pop influences and an indication of the band’s fresh musical approach.
Created in collaboration with top-tier producers like Steve Robson (Leona Lewis, Olly Murs, Take That) and Wayne Hector (Nicki Minaj, One Direction, Westlife), the album is both a tribute to Sheehan and a bold step forward for The Script.
Platinum-selling Tom Walker has sold more than two million albums and surpassed three billion streams globally. He burst into the charts with huge hits Leave a Light On and Just You and I from his number one platinum debut album What a Time to Be Alive (2019).
Since then, Tom has played sold-out shows around the world and even performed with Catherine, Princess of Wales (the Duchess of Cambridge at the time) as part of a Christmas special from Westminster Abbey in 2021.
Rita Broe, managing director of the Eden Sessions, said: “We’re delighted to welcome The Script back to the Eden Sessions stage. Their transformational journey as a band, particularly in recent challenging years, resonates with the spirit of the Eden Project. We’re thrilled that they’ll be joined by none other than the brilliant Tom Walker. This is guaranteed to be an unforgettable evening.”
