Performing Artists
The acclaimed Irish group play their biggest headline show to date at
the legendary Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith, London. This will be
their only remaining UK concert in 2024 outside of summer festivals.
Lankum is an Irish quartet comprising Ian Lynch, Daragh Lynch, Radie
Peat and Cormac MacDiarmada. The band have consolidated their
reputation as one of Ireland’s most important voices following the
release of their 4th, Mercury-nominated, album False Lankum (Rough
Trade, 2023), which has garnered critical acclaim across the board and
brought their music to legions of devoted new fans.
False Lankum is conceived as a single piece of music, comprising 12
inter-connected songs unfolding across an epic 70 minute duration.
Drawing on traditional songs and primitive techniques, the band have
created an immersive, psychedelic listening experience incorporating
experimental overtones and rumbling drones wedded with classic
songwriting, close vocal harmonies and timeless narratives.
The Lankum live show has evolved into a modern day powerhouse, with
the band’s acoustic instrumentation (uilleaan pipes, fiddle,
accordion, guitar, tin whistle and percussion) and close-harmony
vocals transforming into a vast, kaleidoscopic wall of sound.
