About this Event

Celebrated Dublin Singer Songwriters Colm Gavin and Kenan Flannery bring their stellar Co-Headline Tour to the charming environs of The American Bar in Belfast city

Celebrated Dublin Songwriter, Colm Gavin, is signed to BEO Records, home of the first lady of Celtic Music, Moya Brennan

His initial releases “Your Endless Slumber” & “A Voice For The Urban Darlings” both reached the top of the album charts in both Ireland and the UK at the time of their release with singles from the album gracing contemporary music charts right around the world.

Gavin’s witty on-stage performance and sensitive compositions, solidify his position as a singular artist and have seen him grace reputable stages like Vicar Street, Bord Gais Energy Theatre and The National Stadium in Dublin to City Winery Boston and the Legendary West 44″ and Broadway Jazz Mecca, Birdland Theatre in New York City

Colm’s compositions traverse introspective Country ballads and toe tapping Jazz duets with his early releases being compared to the seminal recordings of artists like Stephen Bishop, Dean Friedman & Randy VanWarmer

Sidelong to his solo musical accomplishments, Colm Gavin is fast becoming one of his native Irelands most prolific songwriters and musical collaborators, having penned tunes for and with artists like Eurovision Winner Charlie McGettigan, Claudia Buckley, Kiera Dignam, Sinead Black and many more besides

His latest single “Song for Sam” has spent the better part of a month on the RTÉ Radio 1 recommends list & is presently in circulation on BBC Radio

“Songs this beautiful deserve to be heard” – American songwriter and ASCAP President, Paul Williams (Barbra Streisand, Carpenters)

“A labelmate of Moya Brennan at BEO Records, Gavin traverses many old-timey influences on his new LP, with its eight songs covering everything from Jazz duets, bluesy foot-stompers, and ragtime picking tunes.” – HotPress Magazine


“The Essence of Folk Music in its rawest and most Authentic form”
Praised for writing “bone breakingly beautiful”music. Kenan Flannery is a 25-year-old IYMA’s award winning folk songwriter from Dublin, Ireland.
