A long-standing and much-loved part of Dundalk’s live music landscape, Toales’ Fireside Sessions return on Friday 19 February, reaffirming the venue’s commitment to original songwriting in its purest form. The show begins at 9pm and, as always, admission is free, with Nick Puyane joined on the night by Caoimhín Brady in Toales’ trademark intimate setting.
An accomplished songwriter, pianist and performer, Nick Puyane is widely known for his work with Evil Harrisons, The 1922s and The Magnificent Loafers. His writing has attracted vivid comparisons, variously described as carrying shades of Randy Newman, touches of The Divine Comedy, and even likened to Stephen Sondheim handcuffed to Gavin Friday. Stripped back to a solo performance, Puyane’s songs stand out for their sharp wit, melodic confidence and emotional nuance.
Opening the night is the return of Caoimhín Brady, one of Dundalk’s most promising young songwriters. His introspective acoustic and indie-folk songs explore vulnerability, resilience and quiet optimism, delivered with a sincerity that resonates deeply in close-quarters performances.
Toales has built a reputation as one of the town’s most consistent supporters of live and original music, and the Fireside Sessions remain central to that identity. By removing the noise and placing full focus on the songs, the series continues to offer both artists and audiences something increasingly rare: time, space and real connection.
With no cover charge and a strong emphasis on original material, this Fireside Sessions outing promises a focused, rewarding night of live music at the heart of Dundalk.
