Damien Dempsey

Damian Dempsey is the affable Dubliner who has built a career on writing and performing folk songs on topics as diverse as drug addiction, social injustice, emigration and love. He is the natural heir to balladeers like Luke Kelly, Shane McGowan and Christy Moore.

It’s All Good is a collection of his hits and classics, drawn from six albums over 15 years. It’s a generous selection, featuring 29 tracks, including two new songs, Happy Days and St Patrick’s Brave Brigade.
