DERMOT KENNEDY

Thu, 06. Nov 2025, 9.45 PM | NORTHERN HEART & SOUTHERN BLUES

Event Halle Messe Basel

Dermot Kennedy sings with raw urgency, simultaneously delicate and powerful. Larkin Poe makes guitars speak as if they had written the textbook for it. Two points of the compass, one language: music. Two tonal languages, one evening between fire and embers. An Irishman who compresses air molecules with every note he plays performing a stripped back set – two sisters from Georgia, who electro-magnetise the blues. A musical highlight in the eye of the storm. Kennedy explores inner feelings, Larkin Poe drive over boiling asphalt: both inspired by the spirit of music, because here it's about nothing less than a voyage through the vast universe of sound.
