Brigid Mae Power announces headline show at The Workman’s Club

Irish folk artist Brigid Mae Power has announced a headline show at Dublin's Workman's Club on November 6th, 2021.

Brigid Mae Power's musical journey began in 2015 when she joined American musician Peter Broderick on his Ireland and UK tour. Broderick admired the musician's songs and invited her to his home studio, where they recorded music for her self-titled debut LP.

Since then, Power has followed up 2016's offering with 2018's The Two Worlds and 2020's Head Above The Water.

Painting effortless, hypnotic and expansive songs similar to the likes of Judee Sill, Bill Callahan and Sharon Van Etten; Head Above The Water is a coming of age opus. Featuring a ground-breaking amalgamation of traditional folk and country, the engaging blend of strings, bouzouki, piano and Power’s distinctive vocal make this an achingly beautiful body of work.

Recorded in analogue studio The Green Door in Glasgow with Alasdair Roberts co-producing alongside Brigid and Peter Broderick. It’s a continuing tale of everyday survival; more diverse, different, a bigger canvas, with broader brushstrokes.

Country and traditional folk rub shoulders, making for a juxtaposition of threads, with added instrumentation from five musicians lured into the studio to provide larger dynamics.

Tickets to Power's Workman's Club gig will go on sale this Friday, 14th May at 9am
