Other Voices Dingle 2025: Olivia Dean, Amble, Dry Cleaning & more announced for The Church

Other Voices will soon return to our beloved Dingle home from 28–30 November, bringing you another unforgettable weekend of songs, stories and good times ✨

We are thrilled to be bringing you the first wave of amazing acts who'll be joining us in the Church of St James! As always, you'll be able to catch these performances live & online via the Other Voices YouTube channel.

Olivia Dean

It’s no exaggeration to say that 2025 has proven to be the year of Olivia Dean. The multi-BRIT Award and Mercury Prize nominee has made history in Ireland this month, becoming the first female solo artist to hold both a No.1 album with The Art of Loving and No.1 single with Man I Need simultaneously on the Official Irish Charts in 2025. With the title of Ireland’s Daily Top Artist on Spotify, her star has never shone brighter. Full of warmth, soul and charm, Olivia’s storytelling radiates honesty and heart. She's sold out shows from London to Dublin, and here she is joining us in Dingle – we couldn't be more excited.

Amble

It’s been a meteoric rise for Irish trio Amble, whose debut album Reverie soared straight to number one earlier this year. In just over two years, they’ve gone from quitting their day jobs to selling out three 3Arena shows, amassing over 115 million streams, and earning praise from Rolling Stone and NPR. Their harmonies and heartfelt lyricism – captured beautifully in Lonely Island – have struck a chord with audiences far and wide.

Dry Cleaning

South London’s Dry Cleaning bring their inimitable blend of post-punk precision and poetic observation to Dingle this November. Uncompromising, witty and hypnotic, they’ve carved out a sound entirely their own – taut, articulate, and alive with detail. The band’s Cate Le Bon-produced third album, Secret Love, arrives 9th January 2026, and ahead of its release they’ll be offering an early glimpse of new material at St James' Church - a masterclass in lyrical observation, led by Florence Shaw’s unmistakable spoken-word delivery and the band’s razor-sharp musicianship.

Florence Road

Wicklow’s indie-pop quartet Florence Road are rising fast. Lifelong friends Lily, Emma, Ailbhe and Hannah channel the spirit of The Cranberries with the bite of Wolf Alice, crafting songs that brim with honesty and emotion. Their recent Fall Back mixtape has earned nods from Olivia Rodrigo and beabadoobee, and their track Goodnight captures everything that makes them one of Ireland’s most exciting new acts.

Dove Ellis

Hailing from the west of Ireland, Dove Ellis is an artist unlike any other – blending tender vocals, poetic lyrics and soulful saxophone into a sound that feels intimate yet expansive. His debut single To the Sandals drew critical acclaim for its originality and emotional depth. Following a U.S. tour supporting Geese this autumn, we can't wait to see what he brings to his St James' Church set.

All Church sets will be filmed as part of the 24th series of Other Voices, set to broadcast in early 2026. There'll a handful of golden tickets available through upcoming competitions so keep an eye on our socials and Patreon for your chance to win!

And there's lots more news where that came from! Full details on all Other Voices strands, including our conversation series, Ireland’s Edge 2025, will be released in the coming weeks.
