BLÁNID’s hauntingly powerful voice and confessional, folk-infused songwriting style have been causing a stir in her native Ireland and beyond.
With a distinctive songwriting style and a voice that demands to be heard, Irish singer-songwriter BLÁNID has been recognised as a rising talent industry-wide across the UK and Ireland. She has garnered plays on BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6, RTÉ Radio 1 and more; TV appearances on RTÉ 1’s The Late Late Show, All Arts TV & PBS; and featured vocalist slots on both Netflix’s ‘The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf’, and ‘Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin’ video game.
Fresh off her 2023 UK tour with American folk icon Judy Collins, BLÁNID shows no signs of slowing down. She made her solo debut on RTÉ TV 1’s Fingal Sessions earlier this year, and was hand-selected by the Ivors Academy for both an International Women’s Day performance & YouTube Music songwriting camp. With a wealth of new music to release this year, BLÁNID is “well on her way to stardom” (Earmilk).
