Amy Michelle / Lucy McWilliams / Anna Leah – live gallery and review from The Workmans Club Dublin 20.11.2025

Amy Michelle returned to Dublin for a deeply intimate headline show at Workman’s, and from the moment she stepped on stage, the entire room was wrapped in her world. Born and raised in Mullingar, Amy has carved a space for herself as a beguiling singer, songwriter, and producer who confronts the anxieties of modern life with a fragile yet fearless touch. With three EPs now under her belt, her artistry has only grown more confident and this performance felt like a celebration of that evolution.

Backed by her full band, Amy delivered a set overflowing with emotional honesty and angelic vocals. The crowd hung onto every word, every breath, every quiet moment. When she stripped things back for a few solo songs, the room transformed completely phone torches lit up the darkness, friends and lovers held each other close, and a warm wave of shared emotion filled the venue. The surprise appearance from The Awning added an unexpected spark, their collaboration earning a heartfelt cheer.
The night began with a beautifully curated lineup of Irish talent.

Lucy McWilliams took the stage on keyboard for the support slot, delivering a romantic, somber performance that silenced the room instantly. Her delicate, intimate songwriting created a stillness so heavy that a few audience members were visibly moved to tears.

Opening the evening was Anna Leah, a Dublin-based indie singer-songwriter whose set was full of sincerity and charm. Accompanied by her bass player and her guitar, she performed original songs exploring nostalgia, self-discovery, and the bittersweet edges of coming of age. Her honesty and warmth made for a captivating start to the night.

By the end, Amy Michelle had created something rare, a performance that felt both deeply personal and universally understood. It was a night of love, vulnerability, and musical passion, leaving the Workman’s crowd completely spellbound.
