Dermot Kennedy

Fri May 19, 2023 8:00 PM @The Chelsea at the Cosmopolitan | Everything about Dermot Kennedy seems to radiate the power of song and music. As an Irish singer, he pairs strong vocals with a talent for writing poetic lyrics for most of his tracks. Competitions for local talent shows helped him get out into the spotlight, and it is from these humble beginnings that he developed a small but steadfast offline network of fans. He primarily writes and performs songs in the folk genre and is similar to fellow artist Ed Sheeran. Dermot’s earliest shot at fame came from a singing contest known in Ireland for launching careers for several promising artists. Although the audience favored a different act, the judges for the competition ruled that Dermot was the clear winner. After this, he started releasing new material by himself via streaming platforms. He worked as a Busker in several cities throughout Ireland and the US while developing his music career. Dermot says that David Gray and Glen Hansard, whom he met and performed with on stage, are a couple of his primary influences.
