Award-winning Dublin folk singer Daoirí Farrell returns to the Tyneside Irish Festival, joined by two of Ireland’s finest traditional musicians: Mark Redmond (uilleann pipes) and Robbie Walsh (bodhrán). Known for his rich vocals and masterful bouzouki playing, Daoirí brings fresh energy to classic ballads and contemporary folk. With Redmond’s soaring pipes and Walsh’s rhythmic drive, this trio delivers a powerful, heartfelt performance rooted in Irish tradition. Don’t miss this spellbinding evening of song, story, and musical brilliance from three of the most exciting performers on the Irish folk scene today.
Daoirí is a product of Dublin’s renowned An Góilín Traditional Singers Club and launched his solo career at Celtic Connections in 2016. He has since earned multiple accolades, including the All Ireland Champion Singer title (2013), BBC Radio 2 Folk Award nominations, and RTÉ Radio 1 Folk Awards recognition. His music has been praised by legends such as Christy Moore, Dónal Lunny, and Mark Radcliffe, and featured in publications like MOJO, Songlines, and The Irish Post.
