Eleanor McEvoy

After captivating audiences across the UK, Australia, Germany, and beyond in 2024, Eleanor McEvoy returns to the Oriel Centre, Dundalk Gaol on the 1st November 2025 for a spellbinding evening of music, storytelling, and raw emotion.

McEvoy, one of Ireland’s most celebrated singer-songwriters, steps onto the stage bathed in a solitary glow, surrounded by her electric and acoustic guitars, violin, piano, and a small amp. With an intimate, almost theatrical presence, she takes audiences on a journey through her acclaimed catalogue—songs of love, loss, resilience, and hope. The creator of "A Woman’s Heart", Ireland’s most beloved folk anthem, McEvoy continues to mesmerize fans with her powerful lyrics and soaring melodies. From heartfelt ballads like "Sophie", a song that has touched thousands struggling with anorexia, to the evocative storytelling of "South Anne Street", she brings a deep emotional honesty to every performance.

Tickets are €30.
