Tori Amos / Isaac Levi – In Time Of Dragons tour live gallery and review from Bord Gáis Energy Theatre Dublin 19.04.2026

Tori Amos brought her In Time Of Dragons tour to a sold-out, seated crowd at Bord Gáis Energy Theatre Dublin on the 19th of April, delivering a performance that balanced intimacy with quiet intensity. Opening the evening was Isaac Levi, whose understated set warmed the audience with a blend of delicate vocals and thoughtful songwriting, setting a fitting tone for what followed.

Amos took the stage alongside her longtime collaborators, bassist Jon Evans and drummer Ash Soan, as well as backing vocalists Liv Gibson, Deni Hlavinka, and Hadley Kennary. From the outset, there was a sense of cohesion and trust between the performers, allowing the music to ebb and flow naturally.

Across a 15-song set, Amos treated the audiance to songs like “Shush,” “Your Cloud,” “Black-Dove (January),” and “Crucify,” each delivered with a renewed emotional depth. Her voice, both fragile and commanding, carried effortlessly through the theatre, while her piano work remained as intricate and expressive as ever. A standout moment came with her cover of Poison & Wine by The Civil Wars, which she reinterpreted with a haunting tenderness that held the room in near silence.

The set built gradually toward its finale, culminating in an electrifying rendition of “Cornflake Girl.” Even in a seated venue, the audience’s energy was palpable, rising in waves as the final notes rang out. See set-list below for full set.

What made the evening particularly compelling was Amos’s ability to transform a large theatre into something deeply personal. Between songs, her quiet interactions and knowing glances created an atmosphere that felt almost conversational. It was a reminder of her enduring artistry, rooted not just in performance, but in connection.
