London-based Dubliner LOUIS BRENNAN is a singer-songwriter in the folk tradition. His folk however aren’t the field hands and travelling minstrels of yore but the repressed middle managers and ennui-ridden urbanites of late-stage capitalism. They populate tales of bad sex, half-drunk commutes and interpersonal claustrophobia delivered in Brennan’s cracked baritone, peppered with pitch-black humour.

His 2018 debut album 'Dead Capital' garnered favourable comparisons to Kris Kristofferson, Guy Clark and Leonard Cohen, and was awarded 9/10 by Americana Uk who called it 'an outstanding album- deep, dark and demanding of attention’. His sophomore album 'Love Island, released in October 2022, it has been called ‘an essential album for our times’ by Lonesome Highway..

Brennan has performed at The Ramblin Roots Revue, Red Rooster Festival, Folk In The Park, and played an official showcase at 2024’s Americanafest UK.
