Kean Kavanagh + Arthur Frank

Kean Kavanagh is a story-teller with a strong imagination who set out his stall as both a singer-songwriter and world creator in 2020, with the release of his acclaimed project Dog Person. In what turned out to be a big year for him, 2020 also saw Kean make an appearance on the Everything Is Recorded project FRIDAY FOREVER, (curated by Richard Russell of XL Recordings) alongside Aitch, Flohio, Maria Somerville, Ghostface Killah and others, aligning himself with a tastemaker and hotly tipped selection of musical peers. His debut album The County Star was released to critical acclaim in 2025, and was followed by a 15 date tour of the UK and Ireland.

Alongside his own rise, Soft Boy Records, founded in 2015, morphed into a cultural behemoth of its own, gripping the Irish music scene and becoming subject of a Boiler Room documentary about the label and collective. With his co-founder Kojaque, Kean has found himself sharing stages with names such as Loyle Carner and Lana Del Ray, performing solo-slots opening for Maverick Sabre and Vampire Weekend, currently settled in London, Kean’s career leaves a strong mark and highlights his unique place in Irish music.
