‘Daoirí Farrell is singlehandedly spearheading a resurgence of the authentic in Irish folk music…he is rightly in demand all over the world.’ - Irish Music

Singer and bouzouki player Daoirí (pronounced ‘Derry’) Farrell is described by some of the biggest names in Irish folk music as one of most important singers to come out of Ireland in recent years.

His fourth album, The Wedding Above In Glencree, recorded with Trevor Hutchinson of The Waterboys/Lunasa was released in 2023. Folk Radio UK wrote of his performance on the album, "he has the best Irish traditional voice currently around; if there’s better, I’ve yet to hear it."

"His powerfully unadorned vocals might be from any era, variously recalling Paul Brady and Andy Irvine…it’s a powerful statement" **** Mojo

Doors open at 7pm; gig starts at 7.30pm.
