The Dublin six-piece return to the venue on Wednesday 14 April 2027 to celebrate the release of their debut album Gorta.
Madra Salach have announced a headline show at Vicar Street in Dublin on Wednesday 14 April 2027, as part of their Gorta Tour.
The date follows their December Vicar Street show, which sold out in minutes, and comes as part of a UK and Irish tour that is already completely sold out. It supports their debut album Gorta, announced last week and due on Island Records on January 15th. The record was produced in New York by Loren Humphrey, whose recent credits include Geese and Cameron Winter, and its first song was ‘Ribbon Factory’.
The title is the Irish word for hunger, and the band describe the album as being about inheritance: what we carry from earlier generations, what we leave behind and the many forms hunger can take. The sleeve, by Oscar Torrans, shows a Blemmyes, the headless figure of ancient legend whose face sits in its chest.
The band have also announced their biggest Belfast headline show to date, at The Telegraph Building on Sunday 11 April 2027, three days before Vicar Street. Tickets for that show go on sale on Friday 23 October at 10am via Ticketmaster.ie.
