Acclaimed Galway singer-songwriter to play the Y&E Series tonight

Tonight on the Y&E Series, we're delighted to present Kevin Neary as our next act – going live on the Hot Press Instagram at 7.30pm...

Drawing influence from the likes of Dermot Kennedy, James Vincent McMorrow, The Coronas and Bon Iver, Galway singer-songwriter Kevin Neary continues to establish himself as a thrilling new force in Irish music. Earlier this year, he released his lauded latest single 'Hopelessly True'. Produced by Michael Heffernan (known for his work with Dermot Kennedy, The Script, Gavin James, The Coronas, Gavin Friday and Swedish House Mafia), the track poignantly explores Kevin's search for purpose – taking him to the River Liffey at 2am, where an encounter with a friendly swan reminds him of the beauty and value in life.

The Hot Press Y&E Series is supported by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media. Watch Kevin Neary performing live tonight on the Hot Press Instagram (@hotpressmagazine) at 7.30pm.
