2025 has already been Kingfishr’s year, with a smash hit #1 single in the shape of ‘Killeagh’, ever-growing international tour dates which will close with two sold out Dublin 3Arena headline shows, and the long-awaited release of their debut album ‘Halcyon’ on 22 August. But big plans are also taking shape for 2026, starting with the confirmation of a run of Irish headline summer shows which will see them play to 50,000 fans over three nights.

Kingfishr have been building momentum largely under the radar since 2022, organically upscaling their headline shows and playing gigs as guests to Bruce Springsteen, George Ezra, James Bay, Snow Patrol and many more. Their unique blend of timeless Irish music with contemporary folk/pop/indie flourishes and a rousing emotional intensity has cultivated a passionate following, something first evidenced when 2024’s ‘Live From Dublin’ album hit Ireland’s Top 5. Everything exploded when ‘Killeagh’ took off.
