James Keegan

At just 22 years old, Cork born folk-rock artist James Keegan is rapidly becoming one of Irelands most compelling young voices.
Building his reputation through his live performances, James has toured extensively, touring the U.S. 4 times and covering 41 states across the country along with spanning 15 countries around mainland Europe, all managed as a completely independent artist.

Blending the warmth of folk and energy of indie rock, his honest songwriting and passionate performing has brought James to some of the biggest stages in the world, playing venues like The House of Blues in New Orleans, The Virgin Theatre in Las Vegas and Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater.
His tenacious work ethic has gained him praise and features from tastemakers such as People Magazine, Live Nation, EARMILK, Hot Press Magazine and Notion.

With his debut EP “Teaching Our Teachers” being released in mid 2025, Keegan has been described as someone whose voice carries the weight of one who’s lived more than their years may suggest.
With an unguarded honesty and contemplative power, his music and soul cuts through the listener landing directly in the chest.

With tours lined up across Spain, England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and America, James intends to continue expanding his international presence to grow his fanbase.
Set to release a series of Live Albums/EP’s across 2026, focusing on honing into pushing fans to support their local venues, artists and organisations, James is steadily establishing himself as a distinctive and reliable voice within folk/rock music.
