Dani Larkin

Hot on the heels of her recent success taking home the first PRS for Music NI Creator of the Year Award, Dani Larkin returns to London in 2026 for her biggest headline show yet.

A songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist based in Belfast, her debut album, Notes For A Maiden Warrior (2021), received widespread critical acclaim and catapulted Larkin to the international stage with performances at SXSW and WOMEX as well as tours with Snow Patrol, Lisa O'Neill, Glen Hansard, and Rufus Wainright.

Larkin has since collaborated with the Ulster Orchestra and RTÉ Concert Orchestra and released Walking With Natives (2023) which saw her tour Australia, Korea, Finland, Canada, Ireland and a run of sold out shows at the Irish Arts Centre NYC.

With television appearances on BBC 1, Virgin Media Ireland's Fanning At Whelans, Canada's CTV, alongside radio performances on BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour and RTÉ Radio 1 Larkin has accompanied her songwriting prowess with insights into story and song taking the listener on a pathway to the beyond.

With a profound performance at the RTÉ Folk Awards coupled with her tours in Europe, Australia, Asia and North America, Larkin has been heralded as a ‘must-see’ live performer on the national and international stage. Described as a ‘beguiling’ and ‘powerful’, songwriter and ‘virtuoso guitarist’ (Songlines Magazine) Larkin’s live performances enrapture audiences within a seamlessly woven narrative within carefully considered sonic landscape.
