DORA GOLA

This Polish-born, Lahinch-based singer-songwriter and vocal coach first caught our attention with her 2021 single ‘Dark Sand’, which was soon followed by ‘Flying Tree’ – blending elements of Eastern sounds, Irish folk and dramatic electro-pop, and drawing influence from the eclectic likes of Kate Bush, Gorillaz, Björk and Prince. A dazzling performance on the Hot Press Y&E Series last year cemented her reputation as one of the country’s most captivating emerging talents.
