About This Event

Singer Mary Coughlan will perform at St Augustine’s in Derry on Friday 11 December 2026, bringing her distinctive blend of jazz, blues and folk to the venue’s resonant acoustic space. The evening begins at 7.30pm and draws on a repertoire that spans raw confessionals and reimagined standards, her voice weathered and immediate in the manner of Billie Holiday or late-period Amy Winehouse. Backed by a small ensemble, Coughlan shifts between hushed intimacy and sudden, shattering power, the setlist built around long, unbroken phrases and a stage presence that feels both vulnerable and commanding. The atmosphere in the church-like hall tends to encourage close listening, with Coughlan’s phrasing and emotional weight filling the room without amplification. Tickets are priced at £31.07.
