The Irish alternative-folk six-piece Madra Salach have announced an Ireland headline tour for December 26. The run will see the band perform across Waterford, Limerick, Dublin, Belfast, Galway, Kilkenny, and Cork.

Having completed a sold-out Ireland headline tour last winter, the band’s fanbase has grown rapidly following the release of their January 2026 debut EP It’s a Hell of an Age which reached No. 3 on the Irish Albums Chart.

Hot on the heels of their sold-out debut UK headline tour in March, the band performed a BBC 6 Music Maida Vale Session and announced they will also feature on The Songs of Shane MacGowan, an upcoming tribute album honouring the late Pogues frontman, alongside contributions from an all-star lineup including Bruce Springsteen, Primal Scream, Tom Waits, Johnny Depp, Lisa O’Neill, and more.
