Emma Langford

  • Dolans Warehouse 3-4 Dock Rd V94 VH4X Ireland (map)

Strictly Over 18's, ID Required. 

Emma Langford puts a contemporary spin on the sound of Irish folk; her songs present a unique look at her country's folklore and history, bringing ancient stories into the present, and in so-doing, offering insight into some of life's universal truths. 

Her debut album Quiet Giant earned her the RTÉ Radio 1 Folk Award for Best Emerging Artist in 2018. From her second album Sowing Acorns, her ballad The Winding Way Down to Kells Bay and epic acapella anthem Birdsong both quickly climbed the charts, solidifying her place as a versatile and much sought-after singer-songwriter on the Irish and international music scene. 

Her live shows, dotted with folk tales and anecdotes, are praised as witty, engaging, and utterly enthralling and she has been often compared to Janis Ian, Joan Baez and Ani DiFranco not only in tone and lyricism, but for her uncompromising sense of self. 

Langford’s recent work sees her turn her focus to global issues, exploring animal cruelty, violence against women, and colonial violence in Hunting The Hare and Boys Will Be Boys. Her much anticipated forthcoming album is intended to be a clarion call, with strong central themes of social injustice, and of lesser-known women in history and mythology.
