Paul McKenna has long been ranked among Scotland's finest singers and songwriters, armed with a powerful yet intensely emotive voice and passionate social conscience, often expressed through his songs, a combination that’s brought frequent comparisons to the great Dick Gaughan. Tickets are available online and at Grooves (Wortley Village), Long & McQuade (Fanshawe Park Rd W), and the Marienbad Restaurant.
Cutting his teeth as the front person for The Paul Mckenna Band, Paul travelled the world sharing his songs and his stories for over a decade, playing many of the biggest venues and releasing 5 albums. Having honed his craft, he is now touring on his own. Paul was a featured artist at the world-renowned Transatlantic Sessions in 2019 and alongside Cara Dillon, Tim O’Brien, Molly Tuttle, and the multi-talented house band, he performed a string of shows across the UK.
Performance highlights over recent years include Edmonton Folk Festival, Winnipeg Folk Festival, Milwaukee Irish Fest, Woodford Folk Festival, and regular appearances at Celtic Connections. Paul has shared the stage with many great artists over the years including Dick Gaughan, Dougie MacLean, Archie Fisher, Dave Gunning, The East Pointers, Karine Polwart, Cara Dillon, Karan Casey and Billy Bragg, to name a few.
