Cara Dillon – Coming Home

In the world of music, few luminaries shine as brightly as Cara Dillon. This Irish singer seldom fails to leave audiences spellbound with her breathtaking voice and emotional delivery and has remained at the very pinnacle of the folk genre for over two decades.

In the autumn of 2023 Cara unveiled “Coming Home” to rapt audiences, a show featuring her first new material in over six years. Born from a collection of poems and the remarkable album that followed, this acclaimed live production sees Cara skilfully interweave her new material with a carefully curated selection of her beloved classics. The resulting tapestry seamlessly blends storytelling, poetry, and song, offering a rare and evocative glimpse into Cara’s world, her personal memories and stories inspired by her native Co. Derry and the people, places, and customs she holds closest to her heart. Following the official release of the album and the publication of her book of the same name, Cara will be bringing “Coming Home” to life once again.

She’ll be accompanied by an incredible band who help to make this her most compelling live show yet—in which profound memories and emotions are unlocked in all who see it. Cara will be accompanied by an incredible band led by Sam Lakeman and featuring his sensitive arrangements, which help to make this her most compelling live show yet—in which profound memories and emotions are unlocked in all who see it.
