Mary Coughlan – has announced three Irish live shows for winter 2025 / 2026

Mary Coughlan has announced three Irish live shows for winter 2025 / 2026 Limerick, Galway and Dublin.

Coming off the back of an incredible, sold out performance under the Heineken® Big Top at the Galway International Arts Festival, the legendary jazz and blues singer will play Dolan’s Warehouse, Limerick on 23rd November 2025, Town Hall Theatre, Galway on 19th December 2025 and the 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin on January 18th 2026. 

Mary Coughlan’s career in music has been one hell-of-a-ride. Often described as the greatest female vocalist that Ireland has ever produced, Coughlan proudly stands alongside some of the world’s most iconic jazz singers. She is unique in blending whisky-blurred, smoke-seared, husky notes with the laconic wit of Billie Holiday and Peggy Lee. She draws the line of deep, down and dirty blues singers back to Bessie Smith with the sardonic, bitter-sweet defiance and despair of Edith Piaf. Yet Mary Coughlan delivers it all in a delicious and unapologetic Irish drawl: sceptical, rueful, mournful and melting and ardent for love. 

Mary Coughlan is one of our greatest singers because over 40 years she has made the most grown-up, uncompromising, wholly personal yet utterly universal music on either side of the Atlantic about what goes on between men and women. 

It’s hard to believe that four decades have passed since Coughlan went into the studio to record her debut album, Tired and Emotional.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see one of Ireland’s best performers live this winter.
