Dani Larkin

Dani Larkin is a singer, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist currently based in Belfast. Her debut album, Notes For A Maiden Warrior (2021), received widespread critical acclaim and catapulted Larkin to the international stage with performances at SXSW and WOMEX as well as tours with Snow Patrol, Lisa O'Neill, Glen Hansard, Ye Vagabonds and Rufus Wainright.

With a profound performance at the RTÉ Folk Awards coupled with her tours in Europe, Australia, Asia and North America, Larkin has been heralded as a ‘must-see’ live performer on the national and international stage. Described as ‘one of the finest songwriters of our times’ (Gary Lightbody), Larkin has made numerous radio and television appearances on BBC 1, Virgin Media Ireland's Fanning At Whelans, Canada's CTV, alongside radio performances on BBC Radio 4's Woman's Hour and RTÉ Radio 1.

Larkin pushes the boundaries of songwriter and what it means to be an ‘artist of the times’. She has deftly woven herself within the threads of the modern folk canon alongside Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver and Adrienne Lenker. Larkin’s new record, Next Of Kin, has been heralded as a ‘transformational experience’ (Mojo) and has been played across RTÉ Radio One, Double J Radio and BBC Radio 6 garnering praise from Rolling Stone, Songlines, Hotpress and The Irish Times.
