So much has changed for The Script since they released their first album four years ago. They broke Britain, then the States, then everywhere from Asia to South Africa.

Along the way, they’ve toured with U2, Take That and Paul McCartney, sailed through the second album syndrome that sinks so many bands, played to a 55,000-strong crowd at an historic hometown show in Dublin, amassed almost four million followers on Facebook and 1.5 million on Twitter, sold four million albums, nine million singles,

Frontman O’Donoghue also became a bigger household name on TV talent show The Voice UK.

Band members Mark Sheehan and Glen Power joined him this summer to release new album #3, out now on Phonogenic/Sony.
