Big love and huge respect to all the warrior women around the world today, and to the women suffering through abuse and tough times who’ve yet to meet their inner warrior, believe it sister, it’s deep within you, may it rise like the dawning sun and take flight and soar, Damo X
On the TV Tommorrow, it was an incredible journey, nearly broke me heart but I feel very thankful to and in awe of my people who struggled through all sorts of hellish situations...big big love to them X

i never gave my support to whatever their ideology is, simply anwsered a question from them. For anyone who knows my music my ideology is there in the songs for all to see. Thanks for your time and understanding, Slán agus beannacht. Damien Dempsey
Happy Paddy's Day my friends wherever you are on the planet today. I’m looking forward to a singsong around my fireplace. No bells or whistles, just raw honesty and from the gut passion from three friends who love what the other two do, Sláinte mhaith my friends. Grá, Damo 💚
Although it wasn't possible for the annual Vicar Street show this year, here's hoping you were all able to sing your cares away with Damo's online Christmas show. Thank you to everyone who tuned in. We felt the love. Keep safe and have a Merry Christmas 💚 Team Damo
10 years ago - The collaboration between
@MaserArt
and Damo that created this powerful piece of art. "Farewell to Your Stairwell Forever" read the side of a tower block in Ballymun.

A big thank you to Hotpress from Damo and the team for this review of Vicar St night one.
“Damo swooped in with a late contender for gig of the year at Vicar Street, Dublin on Friday night.” - Lucy O’Toole (Hotpress)

Hello my Friends. There seems to be a bit of controversy about an opinion i gave last night in Terminal1 Dublin Airport, that was recorded. When i came into the terminal i was greeted by two friendly Dublin ladies as i was sitting down getting my stuff together for the trip home.
We're making a film which centres around Damo's last concerts at Vicar street in December 2020. We're looking for fans to share their phone footage with the producers; the journey to the gig, the gig itself and the aftermath. Please contact louise
