DUBLIN born singer and musician, Declan O’Rourke is on the way to Tralee where he will be performing in Tralee’s famous Siamsa Tíre theatre this Saturday night, December 7.

A wily veteran of the stage, Declan has, since 2004, recorded six solo albums and has toured extensively as both a solo-artist while also sharing the stage with such accomplished artists such as John Prine, James Taylor, Rosanne Cash, Mary Chapin-Carpenter and Paul Brady.

Widely admired in the industry, Declan’s songs have been covered by a growing list of artists including Christy Moore, Eddi Reader and Josh Groban.
