Vicar Street, Tuesday 9th June - Wednesday 10th June
After the sell-out success of her current tour, Raised on Songs & Stories, globally revered Irish artist Imelda May has announced additional summer dates. She returns to Dublin’s Vicar Street on June 9th and 10th.
This unique series of intimate evenings will feature new stripped back versions of her wide discography and favourite songs, integrated with her famed poetry & storytelling.
Imelda says: “I’m coming to you soon! 18 nights of an Irish tour. It’ll be an evening of songs, poems, stories, joy and beauty. This idea evolved naturally over the last couple of years. You see, when I write, produce and release an album I get so excited to perform the songs live that I fizz up and plan and rehearse gigs with such enthusiasm that I’m like a little thrilled whirlwind but too often I leave room for little else. I work out which songs will flow best into another to create the vibe desired that I sometimes don’t leave much space for the unknown which is where a different magic lies. This space is the place where I exist and love most, it’s where I write and create. So it feels right to stay there a while. To have a gig where someone might ask for a song I haven’t visited in a while and I think ‘yeah let’s give it a go’, or where I can tell you the stories behind the songs and how I ended up working with some of the people I’ve worked with so far. Not a ‘show’ this will be a shared night of what music, art, connection and creativity means to me, with you.”
