Roisín Gowen

Roisín Gowen is an emerging alt/indie-folk Irish singer-songwriter from Dublin. Roisín's commanding voice takes difficult themes and weaves them comfortably and wholeheartedly, making her songs personal, powerful, and pure. Roisín's debut album, set to be released in March this year, captures a collection of reflections on overcoming loss, singing from a place of finally standing in life, after years of feeling sunken beneath it.

Since returning to Ireland earlier this year, Róisín has found her feet supporting her fellow folky peers and releasing singles ahead of her album launch. She has supported the likes of Barnburner, Elishka Lane, and Jamie D'Arcy in venues such as Little Whelan's, Anseo, and Bewleys. She sold-out her debut headline hometown show at The Cobblestone Backroom last October, a double single launch celebrating the release of her first two singles, Gift of Presence and Fighting Spirit. Both singles are accompanied by music videos made by close friend and collaborator, Rory McMahon. She most recently organised a co-headline show in Upstairs Whelans with Pippa Moloney and Elishka Kane which was followed by Roisín's set at Whelan's Ones to Watch 2026. Her upcoming performances include a support slot for Champion Trees in London this January and Roisín's debut festival performance at Croilár Festival this coming April.

Her final single, Do Gardens Grow in Heaven, will be released on the 16th January.
