Toucan – set for a headline show at Button Factory, Dublin

TOUCAN is the funk, pop and soul project of Irish songwriter Conor Clancy, emerging as one of the most exciting new voices to break out of Ireland. With brass-driven grooves, velvet-rich vocals and songs that bridge Motown soul and modern pop, he’s the kind of artist built for festival stages and sold-out venues. Since his breakout single We Fell For Miles, TOUCAN has sold out headline shows in Dublin, London, Bristol, Cork and beyond, and clocked over 5 million streams to date. UK crowds have already felt his live spark through high-energy sets at Love Supreme, Meltdown, and Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul. 

He’s supported icons including Nile Rodgers & CHIC, James Blunt and Durand Jones & The Indications, as well as The Average White Band at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Most recently, he joined Daði Freyr on his European tour. Now, with brand-new music on the horizon, TOUCAN is announcing tour dates across the UK and Ireland. Expect sweaty dancing, singalongs, and a sound as timeless as it is fresh.
