Imelda May announces Dublin date for 2023
Imelda May has announced she will be back in Dublin’s Iveagh Gardens on 22 July 2023.
Born and raised in The Liberties area of Dublin, Imelda May has become one of Ireland’s most celebrated female artists in history. Her 2008 self-written & produced album ‘Love Tattoo’ is the best-selling album of all time by a home grown female artist in Ireland and her most recent album '11 Past the Hour' marks her fourth Number 1 album in Ireland and fourth Top 10 in the UK. Imelda’s recent albums are a departure from her early rockabilly revival style with a sound that sits firmly outside of any sharply defined genre box, widely spanning blues, rock, soul, gospel and jazz.
'11 Past The Hour’ brims with sensuality, emotional intelligence, spirituality and intuition, marking a new chapter for Imelda and showcasing her at her most authentic – featuring pals and collaborators like Ronnie Wood, Noel Gallagher and Miles Kane, inspired contributions from feminist thinkers and activists such as Gina Martin and Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, the album is an invigorating blast of rock’n’roll, with a purpose
2022 saw her first major film role opposite James Purefoy in Fisherman Friends 2 scoring a Top 3 UK box office, and present the SKY Arts literary travelogue series “The Voices of Ireland” which won the ‘Best Specialist Factual’ at the 2022 RTS Ireland Television Awards.
