Seamus Fogarty Friday 12th December 7pm
Our favourite London-based, experimental Irish folk, singer-songwriter, Seamus Fogarty, returns to the brewery to play a very special December set as part of his UK tour.
Such a treat to see him play whenever we get the chance. This will be a really brilliant night.

“JUST BRILLIANT” – CILLIAN MURPHY, BBC 6 MUSIC
“MAGICAL JOURNEYS THROUGH FABLE AND MODERN LIFE AND BACK AGAIN, OFTEN IN THE SAME SONG’ ★★★★★ – THE GUARDIAN
“BY TURNS GRITTY AND POETIC… A REAL ORIGINAL” ★★★★ – THE OBSERVER
“NESTLES BEAUTIFULLY AT THE POINT WHERE THE DIGITAL AND ANALOGUE WORLDS COLLIDE” ★★★★★ – THE SKINNY
“ORIGINAL, SELF-CONTAINED AND UNENCUMBERED BY THE GENRE” ★★★★ – MOJO
“THE GHOSTLY EMOTIONAL WALLOP OF THE TUNES WILL TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY” – IRISH TIMES
‘I Passed Your House’ is the new single by Irish folk singer-songwriter Seamus Fogarty. This marks Seamus’s first brand-new music since 2023’s Hee Haw EP (featuring the track ‘They Recognised Him’, as acclaimed by Oscar winning actor Cillian Murphy on his Limited Edition show for BBC 6 Music). It’s a fascinating glimpse of a new collection of music by Seamus set for release in 2026 and to mark the occasion he’s playing several shows around the UK throughout October and December
Featuring lyrics about T-shirt-stealing mountains, women who look like dinosaurs and various other unfortunate incidents, Seamus’s 2012 debut album God Damn You Mountain received widespread critical acclaim and was hailed by the Irish Times as “one of the best Irish albums of recent years”. 2015’s Ducks and Drakes EP was similarly acclaimed (“lovely folk reveries” ★★★★ – MOJO). It led to Seamus releasing a pair of exceptional albums via Domino Records – 2017’s The Curious Hand (“magical amplified folk journeys through modern life” ★★★★★ – The Guardian) and 2020’s A Bag Of Eyes (“explores many musical possibilities” 8/10 – musicOMH.com).
Released in 2023, the Hee Haw EP saw Seamus continue his adventures in sound, with five more playfully screwed-up songs – each as fresh as the day and yet somehow old as the hills – spanning unwelcome lockdown observations, strange tales of a pub doorman and surely the only ever close encounter between Darach O’Catháin and Suicide’s ‘Ghost Rider’. In 2025, on the occasion of its 10th (ish) anniversary, God Damn You Mountain was repressed on vinyl and celebrated by Seamus with a series of played-in-full concerts in the UK and Ireland, during a year in which he also opened for Portishead’s Beth Gibbons at shows in London and Luxembourg.
