Tickets: £14Niamh Bury is one of the most exciting new voices on the Irish folk scene. Her debut album, Yellow Roses, was released in March 2024 – quickly stirring hearts, receiving wide critical acclaim and earning #3 on Mojo’s Best Folk Albums of 2024 list. Niamh’s richly-textured folk sound and singular vocals has lead her to share the stage with acts Ye Vagabonds, Flyte, Maddison Cunningham, Dermot Kennedy and Martin Hayes.
Nominated for Best Emerging Artists at the 2024 RTE Folk Awards, Niamh is one of the chief organisers of the iconic traditional singing session ‘The Night Before Larry Got Stretched’, which famously takes place in The Cobblestone pub, and whose founders include members of Lankum and Landless. Along with ØXN and Lemoncello, she is one of the first new artists in almost two decades to be signed to Ireland’s most culturally important record label, Claddagh Records.
Praise for Yellow Roses:
“Think folky Cat Power or sun-drunk Weyes Blood and prepare to be transported.” Mojo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Bury’s vocal style is reminiscent of Laura Marling and Lisa Hannigan’s, her diction highly distinctive and her phrasing impeccable.” The Irish Times ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“‘Yellow Roses’ poses itself as an immaculate debut album from quickly rising folk wonder Niamh Bury.” Golden Plec ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“The effect of immersing yourself in the record is holistic, like gazing up at a sweeping fresco, the detail so magnificent it’s impossible to decide where to lay your eyes first.” Hot Press – 9.5/10
