Taylor Swift Joined By Danny O'Donoghue During London O2 Arena Show

The Script frontman is the latest star to jump on stage with the US singer during her current UK 'Red' tour.

Taylor Swift was joined by The Script's Danny O'Donoghue during her third night at London's O2 Arena yesterday (4th February).

The pair performed 'Breakeven' for the thousands in attendance at the iconic venue.

As soon as Danny hit the stage, a wall of screams descended towards the front as the crowd prepared themselves for a powerful duet.

It's the third collaboration from the US singer, who previously joined forces with Sam Smith and Ed Sheeran on the first two nights of the tour.

Taylor will now head to Berlin before returning to London next week for two more nights at the O2 Arena.

The singer has also recently been teasing details of her next studio album, which she has promised won't hold anything back as she looked back on the past twelve months of her life.

Phoenix concerts: One Republic & The Script will play Phoenix June 1 at Ak-Chin

Hugely successful bands One Republic & The Script are joining forces this coming summer when they bring the 2014 Native Summer Tour to Phoenix, June 1 to Ak-Chin Pavilion.

Tickets are on sale now at Ticketmaster, livenation and the venue box office.

Tickets are priced at $26 - $75.50

In a recent press release from Live Nation, the promoter shared that OneRepublic released their debutDreaming Out Loud in 2007 that featured the incredibly popular and much-played single “Apologize.” The band’s sophomore album, 2009’s Waking Up, produced three singles: “All the Right Moves,” “Secrets” and “Good Life.”

OneRepublic released their third studio album, Native, in March, including “If I Lose Myself,” “Feel Again” and new single “Counting Stars,” which is currently No. 3 on Top 40 radio. They will no doubt play these and other favorite bands tunes when they bring their show to the Valley in June.

The Script, one of my favorite bands of late, released their eponymous debut album in 2008, and achieved worldwide success. The single “Breakeven,” went to #1 on the US charts after a record-setting 36 week ascent went on to double-platinum sales. What a brilliant song this is—nearly perfect in every way.

It was followed by Science and Faith in 2010, which debuted at #1 in the UK and Ireland. Their third album, titled #3 spawned the smash hit "Hall of Fame." The band has sold over eight million singles in the US and has played stadium shows with Paul McCartney and their mentors, U2.

This band is a tremendously talented group of guys and puts one an amazing live show. I am frankly continually amazed that they are second bill to various bands on tours like this one.

Watch cheeky festive video by The Script (NSFW!)

The stars brought out their own little message on Christmas Day - and probably shocked a lot of viewers with the content

(Caution some content not suitable for children)

Take a look at this cheeky festive video by Irish stars The Script.

The band decided to send out a video for their 'Script Family' worldwide early on Christmas Day.

Danny O'Donoghue leads the beginning as the guys belt out their Hall of Fame bestseller.

They then plug their not-quite-lifesize knitted dolls, complete with little woven instruments.

Drummer Glen Power shows off the drumsticks on his doll... before the others reveal a little Christmas surprise.

And they end with a festive message:

 "We wish our #TheScriptFamily a merry Christmas & happy New Year."

Hope there are no children watching, guys!

"I'm a weirdo" - Indiana talks about her music, The Script, The Queen & Danny O'Donoghue

In just 18 months, Indiana has gone from playing her first gig as an unknown in the Old Market Square, to signing a major label deal and performing for the Queen. This week she released her first single for Sony which has been playlisted by Radio 1. Simon Wilson caught her at home just before she headed off to Los Angeles to start work on her debut album...

IT'S one thing singing for the Queen when she's sat just eight feet away from you in a small radio studio but to have deliver the line "and I will be Queen"...

"I was told not to look at her when I sang that line," laughs the 26-year-old at her home in Long Eaton. "But I was so focussed on not looking at her, my eyes were darting around the room and they hit her a couple of times."

She was performing a cover David Bowie's Heroes with Irish band The Script, a random gig that was arranged at the last minute to show Her Majesty the new Live Lounge at the Radio 1 studios at the official opening of the BBC's new Broadcasting House in London.

After the performance, screened live on BBC News 24, Indiana was introduced to her.

"She's well sweet and little," says the mother-of-one in her home studio, where she's been working on tracks for her much-anticipated debut album.

"She reminded me of my grandma Mary. I was still proper scared though. I was so glad I didn't mess it up."

They had a quick chat about Glastonbury – where Indiana, real name Lauren Henson, was due to appear on the BBC Introducing Stage, part of which was seen on BBC Three's coverage.

Indiana was championed by The Script when Danny declared her as a new and upcoming singer. Anyone who listened to her beautiful and haunting voice will find it reminiscent of Bo Bruce, Danny's protege on series one of The Voice.

"Sometimes it feels like ages ago," she reflects. "So much has happened. I want to say I never dreampt I'd get this far... or some other corny line, but the truth is, as soon as I realised this was what I wanted to do, I dreampt big."

But she admits: "I've still got a long way to go."

This week her debut single for Sony, Mess Around, was released and was placed on the playlist at Radio 1, a station that has supported her for months.

Her music has been compared to everything from Portishead to Sinead O'Connor and The Cranberries. It's electronic-based and lyrically dark – surprising for an apparently happy, warm personality.

"People often say I'm not what they expected after listening to my music but I am drawn to darker things. I wanted to be a forensic scientist growing up.

"A lot of the time it's just the way it comes out when I'm writing. Last week I set out to write an Arabian love story but I ended up with a song about a zombie army. It's called Sleeping Nation.

"I'm a weirdo," she laughs.

As well meeting the Queen, Indiana has said that since playing with The Script things have just taken off. Danny offered me so much advice. He's a nice and genuine guy, he really cares and you can hear it when you talk to him he talks to you as a real person, a person in your own right. Not a big star giving a newbie a tiny tidbit that MIGHT help them.

Danny Plays 'The Good Ole Days' On a Bontempi on Capital FM (Video)

Bontempi is an Italian musical instrument manufacturer, best known for manufacturing low-priced, plastic-cased chord organs: small keyboard instruments in which the sound is produced by air being forced over reeds by an electric fan.

Such instruments were popular in the 1970s and early 1980s, and continued to be made until the mid-1980s, when Bontempi moved to manufacturing small, home electronic keyboards. The company continues to make low-priced musical instruments aimed at the educational and toy market, including keyboards, guitars, drum kits and various items of tuned percussion.

Andrea Begley Talks about The Message & Danny O'Donoghue

Andrea Begley, winner of The Voice 2013, chats about her debut album The Message and collaborating with The Script's Danny O'Donoghue.

She says she was attracted to The Voice over certain other TV shows because of its blind auditions process.

“Dancing On Ice really wouldn’t have been a good look for me,” she laughs. “I suppose in terms of auditioning for The Voice I felt it was more appropriate for me because it focuses on the singing rather than all the razzmatazz around performance. The show suited me better and it played to my strengths. And also getting the chance to work with Danny was also at the back of my mind!”

Indeed, Andrea was on The Script frontman Danny O’Donoghue’s team on this year’s show, and the pair have become firm friends with Danny helping co-produce Andrea’s debut album, as well as helping co-write its title track.

“It was really exciting to work with Danny again,” says Andrea. “He’s really at home in the recording studio, and he definitely put me though my paces!”

The Script and rapper B.o.B collaborate on Walk Away Dec 2010.

The Good Ole Days, The Script met B.o.B in 2010 and collaborated on Walk Away from Science & Faith

The Script and rapper B.o.B hang out in Florida in December 2010.

The guys from Irish band The Script haven't forgotten about their US fans, who made their song "Breakeven" a Top 20 hit on the Hot 100 last year - The Danny O'Donoghue-led group will return in the coming weeks to the states to promote their newest studio album "Science & Faith" which will hit stores in the country this January 18th (2011). They did get to release "For the First Time" in America last year, but schedule problems prevented the lads from going to the USA to promote it, so they decided to focus first in Europe and then this year cross the pond again. And The Script have enlisted track #9 on the CD - and one of the stand-outs - "Walk Away" to become their first *real* single in the states. 

However, the version The Script will release there will vary from the original. Rapper B.o.B joins in the official US edit. "Wow, I never ever imagined a collabo between The Script and Bobby Ray, but that has happened. And gladly this risky experiment has turned out pretty well!" B.o.B already tried some pop/rock on his debut album so he blended well with The Script's tune.
