Dermot Kennedy Returns With The Weight of the Woods: A New Era Begins

Platinum-selling singer-songwriter Dermot Kennedy has never been just another name on the charts — he’s a once-in-a-generation voice who built his career the honest way. Before the billions of streams, before the massive stages, and long before his songs became the soundtrack to so many lives, Dermot was just a kid in Dublin busking on street corners, pouring out everything he had to whoever would listen.

Fast forward to now… and the journey is unreal.

Over the years, Dermot has amassed nearly 5 billion global streams, headlined Madison Square Garden, and shared stages with some of today’s biggest stars Zach Bryan, Niall Horan, Noah Kahan and more. His music continues to resonate because it feels human, honest, and built from real stories.

And now, one of modern music’s most powerful voices is stepping into a brand-new chapter.

Dermot Kennedy officially returns with his highly anticipated third studio album, The Weight of the Woods, arriving March 27, 2026.
