Immerse Yourself in the Soulful Sounds of Cara Dillon

Few voices linger in the heart quite like that of Cara Dillon. A towering figure in Irish music, her artistry has garnered global recognition and numerous accolades, including the Meteor Award for Best Irish Female and four BBC Folk Awards.

With nearly 30 years in folk music, her deceptively delicate yet emotionally gripping voice evokes something timeless and elemental. Central to her journey is her husband and collaborator, Sam Lakeman, whose contributions as a composer, producer, and performer have been instrumental in shaping her sound.

Prepare to be captivated by intimate live performances featuring acoustic sets drawn from her extensive discography. Classics like “Black Is the Colour” and “The Parting Glass”, alongside new material from her upcoming 2024 release, ‘Coming Home’, promise a profound exploration of identity and emotion through song and spoken word.

Cara's musical journey began in Óige and De Dannan and has traversed beyond traditional folk borders—spanning chart-topping remixes, Disney soundtracks, and features in the hit TV series Derry Girls. As Mojo magazine aptly noted, Dillon possesses “quite possibly the world’s most beautiful female voice.” With ‘Coming Home’, she continues her legacy, emerging not just as a singer but as a storyteller of deep emotional resonance; her voice lingers long after the final note fades.
