Dublin is going to be feeling
Good As Hell this weekend as Lizzo comes to town .
The U.S. songstress will be in the capital as part of her
Cuz I Love You European tour and sadly for those that don't have tickets, they sold out fairly fast upon their release back in July.
However, if you are one of the lucky ones, you're in for a great night as Lizzo brings her energetic live show to our fair city.
Here's everything you need to know...
Who is Lizzo?
Alright, Gramps.
Melissa Jefferson (real name) was born in Detroit in 1988 and after years grafting in an attempt to break the music industry, she finally became a household name when her album
Cuz I Love You was released earlier this year.
Radio friendly hits such as
Juice and
Truth Hurts as well as a well-documented
performance at this year's Glastonbury Festival have secured Lizzo's position at the top of the music tree.
Where is Lizzo playing?
Lizzo will be performing at the Olympia Theatre on Dame Street.
When is the concert?
Lizzo will take to the Olympia stage on Sunday November 10 with doors expected to open at 7pm.
Who is supporting Lizzo?
The opening act will be
DJ Sophia Eris, Lizzo's former bandmate in the three-piece all-female rap group Chalice. Eris is regularly on the road with Lizzo and should do a great job at warming the crowd up.
Are there tickets available?
Unfortunately not. As mentioned above, the Lizzo show at the Olympia is a sell-out.
What is the set list?
This is the order of songs performed at Lizzo's Miami show on September 11:
Heaven Help Me
Worship
Cuz I Love You
Exactly How I Feel
Scuse Me
