Carlow’s bi-lingual, mutli-instrumentalist maverick SexyTadhg announces their 14-date, community binding, culturally defining ‘SLUTTRAD’ UK & IRE Tour for October / November / December 2026. In tandem with the release of their genre blurring “TADHG” EP which demonstrates a unique vision of Traditional Irish music, that is intrinsically entwined with queer culture, resulting in total redefinition of the modern Irish identity.

The SexyTadhg live show has been described as a “euphoric blend of big band jazz, theatrical soul, and dazzling pop, bursting with brass, keys, layered harmonies, and a groove-rich rhythm section, that channels the grandiosity of the SexyTadhg personna, while showcasing their magnetic, commanding vocal presence.” (1883 Magazine), with Hotpress remarking that the live show is “theatrical disco music at its finest, Tadhg's performances are an exhilarating blend of musicianship and creativity.”

Tadhg's commanding vocals and virtuoso piano skills have mesmerized audiences internationally, as their big band extravaganza elevates Irish musicianship to unprecedented heights. Their performances often draw comparisons to legendary icons like David Bowie, Elton John, Lady Gaga, and Freddie Mercury, yet SexyTadhg artfully intertwines this majestic persona with the uplifting joy of Traditional Irish folk and intimate narratives that explore themes of gender, sexuality, and mental health.
