SUMMARY:D.K. Harrell
DESCRIPTION:Guitarist\, vocalist and songwriter D.K. Harrell\, one of the most formidable young stars of the current blues resurgence\, sounds like no one else on the scene today. With his stinging\, single-note string bending\, deep soul vocals\, and attention-grabbing original songs\, the 27-year-old Harrell\, a major draw at blues festivals around the world–is already in a league of his own. \nD.K. Harrell was born D’Kieran Harrell in Ruston\, Louisiana in 1998. He first heard B.B. King at age two and responded by singing along. He sang in his church choir as a boy while continuing to be drawn to the blues. Films like The Blues Brothers\, Cadillac Records and Ray made him eager to sing and play. He received his first guitar at 12\, and by 16 was writing his own songs. Initially inspired by B.B. King\, the youthful Harrell spent hours studying every video of King he could find\, learning not just King’s licks but ultimately his tone\, his finesse\, his stage craft\, and his band leadership skills. Harrell’s first paying gig was as an invited guest to the B.B. King Symposium in Indianola\, Mississippi–where he played “The Thrill Is Gone” on King’s iconic guitar\, Lucille–backed by members of King’s touring band. \nIn 2022 Harrell won the B.B. King Of The Blues Award for Preserving Traditional Blues Heritage from the Jus’ Blues Music Foundation. In addition to B.B. King\, Harrell fell under the spell of blues masters including Albert King\, Freddie King\, Elmore James\, Muddy Waters and others\, and made their styles part of his musical vocabulary. His debut album\, ‘The Right Man’\, was released on the Little Village label in 2023 to rave reviews and wildly excited fans. \nNow\, with his Alligator Records debut album\, ‘Talkin’ Heavy’\, D.K. Harrell cements his place among the leading voices of the new generation of blues players. This Blues Music Award-winning guitarist with a soul man’s voice and a well-earned reputation as a mesmerizing live performer delivers fresh\, emotion-packed blues informed by the tradition he loves and played with the foot-pounding fervor of a revival tent preacher.

SUMMARY:THE CASTELLOWS
DESCRIPTION:Rooted in the red clay of Georgetown\, Georgia\, The Castellows are a sister trio redefining neo-traditional country music with a fresh Southern soul. Composed of Ellie\, Lily\, and Powell Balkcom\, the group blends blood harmony with back-porch honesty\, creating a sound that’s as timeless as it is current. \nRaised on gospel\, bluegrass\, and the stories of small-town life\, The Castellows found their collective voice in 2022\, quickly gaining traction with stripped-down covers and original songs shared across social media. Their natural harmonies and authentic presence drew fans in by the thousands—and caught the attention of Nashville. \nBy 2023\, the sisters had inked a deal with Warner Music Nashville and Warner Records\, officially kicking off a professional journey that had long been in the making. Their debut EP\, A Little Goes a Long Way (2024)\, produced by Grammy-winner Trina Shoemaker\, introduced the world to the heart and grit behind their music. With six of the seven tracks penned by the trio\, the EP is a heartfelt homage to faith\, family\, and Southern roots. \nIn 2024 alone\, they sold out nearly half of their very first headlining tour\, dropped three singles—including Sober Sundays\, a standout collaboration with Wyatt Flores—and released a buzzworthy EP. They also hit the road with country icons Little Big Town and Sugarland\, earning new fans across the country. \nBreaking into 2025 starting with a C2C a brand new EP titled Homecoming and a major tour alongside Thomas Rhett. And the momentum doesn’t stop there—the Castellows will headline again this fall on their very own Homecoming Tour. \nWhether it’s a front-porch singalong or a sold-out stage\, The Castellows deliver every note with raw emotion and radiant unity. Their sound is a little old-school\, a little new wave\, and a whole lot of home.

SUMMARY:Lucy Rose
DESCRIPTION:Lucy Rose’s return to the stage follows one of the most challenging and transformative periods of her life. After the release of her critically acclaimed 2019 album ‘No Words Left’\, which culminated in a sold-out performance at London’s Barbican\, Rose planned a period of rest following years of relentless touring\, but was instead met with a rare and life-altering diagnosis. \n“Five weeks after I gave birth to Otis\, I started getting back pain… until one night\, whilst lifting him\, my back went.” An eventual MRI scan revealed eight fractured vertebrae caused by pregnancy-associated osteoporosis\, a condition affecting fewer than 1 in 100\,000 women\, leaving her unable to carry out everyday tasks with doctors unable to guarantee recovery. \nRecovery came gradually\, aided by hydrotherapy that\, in Rose’s words\, “really changed my life.” As her physical strength returned\, so too did her connection to music. \nWhat followed was a creative reawakening that reshaped her relationship with songwriting\, including time spent working with Logic and recording at Paul Weller’s studio\, embracing a more open and instinctive creative process. \n‘This Ain’t The Way You Go Out’ is an album constructed from the ashes of despair\, nurturing the tiniest of green shoots and giving life to something that had looked otherwise spent. It’s a new era for Lucy\, and an era in its purest\, truest sense. An artist re-awakening herself to the power of music\, and having a lot of fun in the process of its discovery and delivery.

SUMMARY:NCH Landmarks: Paddy Casey
DESCRIPTION:In this occasional series\, leading Irish artists perform their landmark album and music from their career. \n​​​​​​​As part of the NCH Landmarks series at the National Concert Hall\, Paddy Casey returns to Dublin for a special night celebrating the albums that defined the early chapters of his career. This landmark performance will see Casey revisit Amen (So Be It) and Living in full; records that not only shaped his own musical journey but left a lasting imprint on Irish music. \nHaving been at the forefront of the Irish music scene since his multi-platinum selling debut album Amen (So Be It)\, Paddy Casey’s career has taken him all over the globe touring with acts like The Pretenders\, R.E.M\, Ian Brown\, Blondie and Tracy Chapman to name a few. Closer to home he has played all over Ireland\, including a sold out Dublin Castle\, RDS and a record-breaking week long run in The Olympia Theatre\, alongside special guest spots with U2\, Pearl Jam\, Bob Dylan and more. \nPaddy Casey’s hugely successful debut album Amen (So Be It) achieved many international highlights including tracks being featured in hit television shows such as ‘Dawson’s Creek’ and ‘Roswell’ alongside extensive American and European tours. Further establishing himself as one of the country’s most successful artists\, his second album Living went on to become one of the biggest ever selling albums in Ireland (approximately 15 times platinum in its first year) \nThis was followed by the release of Addicted To Company\, Part 1\, with this album seeing Paddy Casey continue to tour across America\, performing on The Late Show with David Letterman\, securing a week-long slot on MTV. After the release of this album Paddy Casey decided that it was time to part ways with his record label and go independent in order to let himself and his music veer off in any direction the wind carried them\, resulting in his first release The Secret Life Of and his last double album Turn This Ship Around a resounding success with both the albums reaching platinum status. \nPaddy is currently mixing and getting ready to release the first single from his (as yet unnamed) new album due out this summer. \nPresented by NCH

SUMMARY:STIPE: A TRIBUTE TO R.E.M.
DESCRIPTION:R.E.M. formed in 1980\, in Athens\, Georgia and by the mid-nineties earned the tagline ‘the biggest band on the planet’ from the music press. \nThey pioneered the alternative rock scene with relentless touring and a distinctive sound and entered the 90s mainstream without compromising their artistic vision. They remain as relevant today as ever. \nTheir music is instantly recognisable: ringing guitar lines\, tasteful and clinical drumming\, melodic bass\, and sublime harmonies coupled with poetic (and political) lead vocals. \nContinuing as a trio after the departure of drummer Bill Berry in 1997\, R.E.M. broke up in September 2011\, just as they had started: as friends. They have ruled out ever re-forming. \nR.E.M. by Stipe\, the Definitive Tribute reflect the core of R.E.M.: four highly-experienced musicians who embody Berry\, Buck\, Mills and Stipe\, capturing the presence and performances of the band. \nAs huge fans of the band they are committed to holding true to the sound and overall aesthetic of R.E.M.\, so that fans\, old and new\, can experience the magic of hearing these songs played live with care\, conviction\, and affection. \nThey are joined on stage\, as R.E.M. were\, by additional musicians to help bring album tracks to life on stage. Each set-list is different\, but every show celebrates this timeless music for fans of R.E.M. \nHere is just a sample of what fans say about R.E.M. by Stipe\, the Definitive Tribute: \nIf you miss R.E.M. (or if you never saw them live) then Stipe are the next best thing to R.E.M. being back on tour.

SUMMARY:Singular Artists presents Skullcrusher
DESCRIPTION:Skullcrusher is the folk-electronica musical project of New York-based musician Helen Ballentine. She released her latest album\, And Your Song Is Like A Circle last October\, and has previously supported artists such as Ethel Cain and The Japanese House. \nAnd Your Song Is Like a Circle\, the second album from New York-based artist Skullcrusher\, a.k.a. Helen Ballentine\, winds its way into an everchanging\, unstable core. \nIf Skullcrusher’s first album rendered the detailed intimacies of domestic space\, Circle finds itself vaporised across the landscape: swirling\, drifting\, searching. It skirts an event horizon in long\, slow strokes. These are songs that vibrate with the fervency of an attempt to capture a moment\, to draw a circle around it. \nSkullcrusher is now bringing this to a live audience\, stopping off in Dublin on Saturday\, 20 June 2026. This isn’t one you want to miss.

SUMMARY:MOLLY O’MAHONY
DESCRIPTION:O’Mahony first emerged as a formidable voice in the Irish art-folk scene as front woman of Mongoose\, with whom she released two albums and toured extensively over the course of a decade. Her shift into solo work marked a turning inward. In 2022 she released her debut solo album\, The House Of David\, a deeply personal collection written largely during lockdown while back home in Ballydehob\, West Cork. The record introduced audiences to a songwriter unafraid of emotional candour\, pairing spine-tingling harmonies with diaristic honesty.\nThe House Of David earned national radio support including airplay on RTÉ Radio 1 and received a nomination for Best Debut Album at the Hot Press Awards\, confirming O’Mahony as one of Ireland’s most compelling emerging voices. \nFour years on\, she returns with her most expansive and emotionally resonant work to date. Rooted in Ireland’s storytelling tradition yet shaped by contemporary global unease\, her new album Waiting On The World explores love\, uncertainty and resilience in a post-COVID landscape. \n“Molly’s voice echoes ethereally like a cherubic Patti Smith\, like a celestial PJ Harvey soaring” – Barry Egan\, Sunday Independent \n“Stunning\, impressive and evocative…” – Alexandra Anderson\, Hotpress

SUMMARY:Imelda May – Raised on Songs & Stories
DESCRIPTION:After the sell-out success of her current tour\, Raised on Songs & Stories\, globally revered Irish artist Imelda May has announced additional summer dates. She returns to Dublin’s Vicar Street on June 9th and 10th. \nThis unique series of intimate evenings will feature new stripped back versions of her wide discography and favourite songs\, integrated with her famed poetry & storytelling. \nImelda says: “I’m coming to you soon! 18 nights of an Irish tour. It’ll be an evening of songs\, poems\, stories\, joy and beauty. This idea evolved naturally over the last couple of years. You see\, when I write\, produce and release an album I get so excited to perform the songs live that I fizz up and plan and rehearse gigs with such enthusiasm that I’m like a little thrilled whirlwind but too often I leave room for little else. I work out which songs will flow best into another to create the vibe desired that I sometimes don’t leave much space for the unknown which is where a different magic lies. This space is the place where I exist and love most\, it’s where I write and create. So it feels right to stay there a while. To have a gig where someone might ask for a song I haven’t visited in a while and I think ‘yeah let’s give it a go’\, or where I can tell you the stories behind the songs and how I ended up working with some of the people I’ve worked with so far. Not a ‘show’ this will be a shared night of what music\, art\, connection and creativity means to me\, with you.”

DESCRIPTION:Join us for an intimate evening of raw music and viral storytelling as American singer-songwriter Zack Keim and filmmaker David Shane make their highly anticipated Irish debut. Hailing from Pittsburgh and fresh off a four-year run touring the US and Europe\, Zack Keim brings the soulful indie-folk melodies of his new album\, Battery Lane (released via CAAMP’s label). Described by Shindig! Magazine as a blend of Lou Reed’s pop hooks and a singular\, plaintive voice\, Keim’s performance is a masterclass in the art of starting over. \nSharing the stage is David Shane\, the visionary behind the viral More Love Projects\, a movement built on human connection that has generated over 500 million views worldwide. For this tour\, Shane steps away from the screen to bring his stories of vulnerability and love into a live music setting where songs and narratives meet. Opening the night is Dublin’s own Kenan Flannery\, who carries the torch of the Irish ballad tradition into the modern day. Drawing deep influence from his upbringing in traditional storytelling\, Kenan weaves haunting narratives and honest lyrics that bridge the gap between old-world heritage and contemporary folk. Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind night where the best of indie-pop hooks meets the quiet\, human moments that connect us all.
