Jamie Duffy

Event information

At just 24, Jamie Duffy has emerged as one of Ireland’s most compelling new artists, blending folk, classical, and contemporary influences into a sound that’s both intimate and cinematic. His debut single Solas became the most streamed debut by an Irish artist since Hozier’s Take Me To Church, with over 125 million streams on Spotify, 25 million YouTube views, and 6.6 billion views on TikTok.

In 2024, the folk-classical composer released his debut EP On A Wing, sold out his first Irish headline tour (2,600+ tickets), and supported Andrea Bocelli and Hans Zimmer at BST Hyde Park. Now, with over 1.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, he’s gearing up for his biggest chapter yet.

His debut self-titled album, out 10 October 2025, was recorded across Ireland and Iceland with BAFTA winner Atli Örvarsson. Forged between wild coastlines and still nights, the album reflects Jamie’s rural Monaghan roots, shaped by changing environments, Irish folklore, love, light, and trepidation.

Alongside the album, Jamie has scored his first feature film 500 Miles (starring Bill Nighy and Maisie Williams) and will tour Ireland, the UK, and Europe in autumn 2025.

‘Whether he decides to be Ireland’s answer to Hans Zimmer or the next Yo-Yo Ma, the future is most certainly bright’ – The Irish Times

Special guest is Bells Larsen. How can we forge new forms of coming home to ourselves? On his sophomore album Blurring Time (2025), Bells Larsen collapses time into a series of patient ceremonies. Guided by the satisfaction of simply ‘being’ as a political act, the record explores the ways we write the ever-arriving self into existence. Oscillating between lo-fi 90s indie and searing folk ballads, Larsen’s project features the haunting accompaniment of voices frozen in time. Aligning with his transition timeline, he recorded his previous ‘high’ voice and instrumentation in 2022, waited for his voice to drop after starting testosterone, and asked longtime friend and frequent collaborator Georgia Harmer to arrange harmonies for his new ‘low’ voice. Together, they created a multilingual, intentional act of surrendering to change. Unlike past projects where vocals were set in the backdrop, Blurring Time unites both voices at the forefront, delivering an unyielding devotional.

Produced by Graham Ereaux, Larsen’s intricately crafted arrangements evoke Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens and Adrienne Lenker. His lyrics meditate on sibling dynamics, queer world-making, and shared epiphanies, enveloped in soundscapes of quiet intimacy. Larsen’s debut album Good Grief (2022), created during an artist residency in Banff, mourned the death of first love as a collective empathy exercise. Featured in The Line of Best Fit, Under the Radar, and CBC, he has shared stages with Buck Meek, Martha Wainwright and Land of Talk. If Good Grief reached outward in loss, Blurring Time archives Larsen’s journey of self-actualisation, harmonising voices of past and present into a quiet yielding to the constant state of becoming.
