Advertisement
Tolü Makay is a Nigerian-Irish alternative pop soul artist celebrated for her commanding voice and emotionally charged performances.
Tolü has performed across Europe and the US. Highlights include opening for Disclosure at Guinness’ inaugural festival, supporting Gabrielle in the 3 Arena, starring in an RTÉ Documentary alongside Lewis Capaldi and Niall Horan, and performing for the President of Ireland at his 80th Birthday. Her song Aye was featured in the series Conversations with Friends. She has also featured on The Late Late Show, The Tommy Tiernan Show and Dancing with the Stars in 2026 where she made it to the final.
Her breakout moment came from a cover of N17 that went viral, moving Graham Norton to tears. This also led to her performing in the John F. Kennedy centre in Washington. In 2025, Tolü released her EP People Still Cry in the Summer. She has just announced an Irish Tour in 2026.
Please note, this is a reduced capacity event due to expected building works on an adjacent KCC building, Newbridge Library. Riverbank Arts Centre's seating plan may be subject to change to accommodate these works.
