Killeigh native and folk musician Dubh Lee will be launching her sophomore EP ‘FUFO’ on Friday 22nd May in John Lee’s bar, Tullamore.
The singer has had a busy April and May, embarking on an Irish tour with shows in 10 counties - Dublin, Carlow, Kildare, Monaghan, Louth, Waterford and more. Singles from the record were released across 2025 and 2026 and the title track ‘FUFO’ was selected by 2FM’s Blathnaid Treacy as Track of the Week upon its release in March 2026, followed by Hot Press selecting Dubh Lee as one of their ‘Artists to Keep an Ear on..’ in April 2026.
In the past the Offaly native has performed at festivals and events such as Electric Picnic, Fuinneamh, All Together Now and the Ruby Sessions as well as intimate shows opening for acts such as Alabama 3 and Jerry Fish. Not afraid of experimenting with genre, Dubh Lee’s vocals have featured on the tracks of hip-hop and drum’n’bass artists and her live shows are dynamic, with earnest acoustic folk tunes building up to electric-guitar driven bangers.
Dubh Lee’s debut EP, Animals and Friends, came out in May 2023. The 4-track EP explores romantic misadventures and friendship, with old and new sonic influences from Aldous Harding to The Band. Her song ‘To My Sisters’ from that record won the Night and Day song contest that year. The release was also accompanied by an acoustic Irish tour, with 9 shows across multiple counties in Spring 2023 culminating in a sold-out show in Workman’s Vintage Room.
This Friday will see the singer joined on stage by a six-piece band, and support on the night will be provided by another Tullamore artist called For The Birds. Tickets are €12, available on Eventbrite or on the door, and doors are at 8.30pm.
