Damien Dempsey - Holywell (2026)

A deeply personal collection of songs rooted in oral tradition, Damien explains: “These are songs I heard as a child, sung by my elders in houses and pubs at singsongs. Some are centuries old, and many people don’t know them. For me, they’re like a holy well. When I sing them, they bring healing to my soul.”

Holywell continues Dempsey’s lifelong mission to preserve and pass on traditional Irish music to new generations:

“I have lots of young fans, and I know they’ll be learning and singing these songs now, and so this gold travels on into the future, carried in people’s hearts, minds and souls, gifted to others along the way. Happy days.”
