Global star on-the-rise Dermot Kennedy today releases his new single ‘Outnumbered’, alongside the release date for his debut album Without Fear - due September 27th - and his biggest ever UK and Ireland tour in December.

On ‘Outnumbered’ Dermot said; “Outnumbered is an attempt to comfort anybody who is feeling overwhelmed. A reminder that beauty can be found no matter how dark the night may seem. I hope it can be a source of reassurance to anyone going through hard times. To know that things will get better and that hard times will become a thing of the past.”

The single comes in the wake of a career highlight run of sold out shows around the UK and Europe, including a staggering performance at London’s Brixton Academy and four nights at Dublin’s Olympia Theatre. Last week saw an incredible performance at All Points East festival as well as a show stopping set at Coachella in April as part of a US tour which saw Dermot play to sold out shows to thousands of fans across the country. This weekend, Dermot plays as special guest to Mumford & Sons at their two Malahide Castle concerts in Dublin.

Dermot’s long-awaited debut record Without Fear due September 27th, is available to pre-order now via www.dermotkennedy.com and comes ahead of his biggest run of dates yet including his biggest ever headline show at Dublin’s 3Arena on December 22nd.
