Bronagh Gallagher

Bronagh is one of our all time favourites. She’s incredible live and has blown minds at our Mix Tape gigs. Check out her website for news of upcoming shows.
“One of the purest, clearest talents I know, a fabulous singer, bursting with raw Irish soul. Striking and original songs and an effortlessly brilliant band”.

“Bronagh has always felt the music deeper than anyone I know, she also writes songs that are pitched at the same level of excellence and meaning. They sound instantly old world and yet vital and new. If you steep yourself in the good stuff for long

- Glen Hansard
“Bronagh Gallagher’ is a superb recording artist. She nods repeatedly in the direction of the ‘60s and early ‘70s to marvellous effect with the band conjuring a delicious gospel feel under Gallagher’s gripping vocal.

This suitably eponymous record is a triumph for Bronagh Gallagher herself.”
