The Kilkennys

In the organizer's words:

Ireland's best international folk band on tour again with anniversary album "25 Year Celebration". Ten exclusive German shows in fall 2026, including a performance at Goldmark's in Stuttgart on October 10.

After a landmark year in which they celebrated their 25th anniversary, THE KILKENNYS return to the stage in 2026 with a brand new international tour. Along for the ride is the band's newly released, acclaimed album "25 Year Celebration", a 25-song double album that combines new recordings with fan favorites. However, The Kilkennys unfold their unmistakable energy best live on stage - which is why their fans in Freiburg, Munich, Nuremberg, Stuttgart, Aschaffenburg, Cologne, Herford, Dresden, Hanover and Hamburg can look forward to new shows.
THE KILKENNYS are known for their modern interpretation of traditional Irish folk music and have earned a reputation over the years as one of Ireland's most exciting live bands. On their 2026 tour, the band will showcase their signature harmonies, congenial musicianship paired with their distinctive storytelling, as well as brand new material created since the release of their anniversary album.
THE KILKENNYS, consisting of Davey Cashin, Tommy Mackey, Mick Martin, Jason Turk and Davey Long, celebrate the musical spirit of Ireland in their performances, from classic ballads to contemporary folk anthems. After more than 25 years together, their passion for live performances remains undiminished and now unites a large international fan base!
