The Idaho native will now perform there on Friday 17 December as well as the previously announced date of Thursday 16 December.

This acoustic tour also includes dates in Cork Opera House (Monday 13 December) and at the Black Box in Galway (Sunday 19 December).

Since Ritter's last album, 'Hello Starling', was released on Independent Records in late 2003, entering the Irish Album Charts at Number Two, he has spent most of his time touring the US, Europe and Canada.

'Hello Starling' was recently nominated for the Shortlist Prize in the US and Ritter has also been nominated for three Boston Music Awards - Album Of The Year, Local Song Of The Year for 'Kathleen' and Male Singer/Songwriter.

Tickets for all his Irish shows are on sale now.

Must Watch TV

  • - 30 Rock

    11.45pm, 3e

    Another case of a great show at an awful time - and it's a terrible shame because 30 Rock has probably been the smartest as well as the funniest network American sitcom since the glory days of Seinfeld. Tonight, Liz returns from holiday break with a new outlook that leaves her immune to Tracy's acting out over Jenna's new fame as a judge on the reality show America's Kidz Got Singing. Meanwhile, Kenneth prepares for the Rapture.

  • - Franc's DIY Brides

    8.30pm, RTÉ One

    With a budget of €10K, and 160 guests invited to their very special day, Franc is on hand to mentor Dublin couple Gemma Barnes and Gary Mackle as they endeavour to create their winter wonderland-themed wedding in Wexford. A wedding dress has to be found, and a ring needs to be re-worked all in an attempt to create a unique and cost effective 'wow' wedding. And Gemma and Gary head for Camp Franc to find out just how they can make their day perfect.

  • - Golf: PGA Championship

    2.30pm, BBC TWO

    Golf is one sport that looks amazing on TV, so here's another treat for couch potatoes. Hazel Irvine presents live coverage of the fourth and final round at Wentworth. Last year's final day culminated in a dramatic play-off between Luke Donald and Lee Westwood, and it was the former who emerged victorious to take the world number one spot off his compatriot. With so many Europeans dominating the top of the World rankings, viewers can expect a tight contest (and maybe an Irish win).
