An Evening with Imelda May: Raised on Songs and Stories

Globally revered artist Imelda May brings her 'Raised on Songs & Stories' show to Thurles as part of her tour through Ireland this Spring.
This intimate show will feature stripped-back versions of her songs alongside her famed poetry and storytelling.
Imelda says:
"I’m coming to you soon! It’ll be an evening of songs, poems, stories, joy and beauty. This idea evolved naturally — I wanted to create a space where anything can happen, where I can share the stories behind the songs and reconnect with fans in a truly spontaneous way.”
Recently on RTÉ One and the RTÉ Player, Imelda presented and executive produced 'Amhráin na nGael, Imelda May: The Songs of the Irish', a six-part series exploring Ireland’s great music collectors. Travelling across the Gaeltacht, she delved into the emotional power of sean-nós singing and her relationship with the Irish language.
Born and raised in The Liberties, Dublin, Imelda is one of Ireland’s most celebrated artists. Her breakthrough album 'Love Tattoo' (2008) remains the best-selling album by a homegrown female artist, while '11 Past the Hour' (2021) became her fourth Irish No.1. She’s collaborated with legends like Jeff Beck, Bono, and Ronnie Wood, toured worldwide, and recently starred as Pierce Brosnan’s wife in Four Letters of Love. A true creative force, Imelda continues to captivate audiences through music, poetry, theatre, and film.
