Niall McNamee

“You may recognise Niall McNamee from the small screen but you’re about to know him for his music. Putting a modern twist on his Irish heritage, it mixes a Celtic post-punk passion with a 21st century alt-rock style”. Sunday Mirror “An incredible talent. He manages to blend alternative rock (a la Arctic Monkeys and Oasis) with Celtic and folk influences, resulting in a style that belongs to him and only him”. Hot Press “Totally original; the punk lovechild of Shane McGowan, Johnny Cash and Joe Strummer with a voice like Guinness and tears.” John Hannah (Four Weddings & a Funeral / Race Across the World) “A voice and lyricism that reaches deep into the past and drags it rough and tumble into the modern day” Daily Telegraph “genuinely exciting .. Masterfully bridges the gap between traditional Irish storytelling and modern alt-rock dynamism .. unique & compelling” The Crack “A really powerful performer – one heck of a voice” BBC Wales “Niall McNamee is Declan O’Rourke in his verses and Dermot Kennedy in his choruses” BBC Radio Ulster “Passionate, thoughtful and full-blooded … traditional Irish heritage pushing into contemporary rock and pop territory.” American Songwriter "a natural storyteller with the gift of connecting with you immediately” Hot Press “Niall McNamee is amazing. Just fantastic” Irish World Touring UK and Ireland in November 2026. Tickets available now.
