Upcoming Shows

Niamh Regan
Galway singer-songwriter Niamh Regan has established herself as one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary Irish folk.
Her 2020 debut album Hemet earned widespread acclaim and nominations for both the RTÉ Folk Awards and the Choice Music Prize, introducing an artist with a rare ability to make beautifully understated songs feel deeply personal.
Her second album, Come As You Are, saw Niamh broaden that sound while retaining the honesty and intimacy at the heart of her songwriting. Recorded with producer Tommy McLaughlin at Attica Studios in Donegal, the album explores relationships, self-doubt and finding your way back to yourself, with a richer, more expansive musical backdrop.
Hubert Murray
is a Galway-born singer-songwriter and guitarist whose music draws on folk, blues and roots.
He has previously performed with Hot Rock Pilgrims and Lands End Bluegrass Band, touring in Ireland, the UK and Europe and appearing at festivals including Cambridge Folk Festival and the Isle of Wight Festival.
His current solo work moves beyond traditional bluegrass into a more contemporary folk sound, with his debut album Riots of Insanity exploring themes including relationships, modern life and the impact of the online world.
We’re delighted to welcome Hubert to Poppy Lane Sessions.
