Kevin Bridges has been presented with the first Platinum Artist Award from the SEC after taking the crown as the artist who has played the most shows ever at SEC venues. The comedian’s 16-night sell-out shows at the OVO Hydro for his “Overdue Catch Up” tour bring the comedy legend’s total performances to sixty-three and kicks off a new awards programme from the SEC, recognising the best in live entertainment.

The award was presented backstage on Thursday night as the incredible run nears a close.

Debbie McWilliams, SEC’s Director of Live Entertainment said: “It is always a pleasure to welcome Kevin back to the SEC, and this year more so than most as he reaches this significant milestone. It is fitting that homegrown talent is the recipient of our first Platinum Artist award. Kevin now paves the way for other artists to be recognised with this new award."

Kevin Bridges is currently on tour. Dates are here.
