KILKENNY ARTS FESTIVAL: RÓIS – AUG 13

Wednesday 13th August 2025
Location: The Set Theatre, John St.
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13, 2025 21:00
A composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist, RÓIS blends elements of folk, sean nós, electronics and jazz harmony into a sound that transports listeners to a different realm. Released last year, her debut EP Mo Léan – featuring modern reinterpretations of ancient keening songs – met with instant acclaim, winning her Album of the Year at the Choice Music Prize and Best Emerging Artist at the RTÉ Radio 1 Folk Awards. But it’s live that her unique vocal style, rooted in traditional sean nós singing while drawing comparisons with Björk, Meredith Monk and Hatis Noit, really comes into its own.
Please note: this is a standing show.
