Dolores Keane is best known as the “Voice of Ireland” as described by Nanci Griffith.

Dolores was first introduced to music by her aunts Sarah and Rita Keane and was performing with them by the age of five. She was the first vocalist with De Dannan at the age of seventeen, and with them recorded her immortal version of “Rambling Irishman”.

She toured for years with her then husband John Faulkner, and recorded “My Own Dear Galway Bay”. Returning to De Dannan for a second round brought her “Teddy O’Neill” and “Sweet Forget Me Nots”.

Dolores’ solo career is also memorable for her recordings of Caledonia and Never Be the Sun. Dolores was one of the five female vocalists chosen for the record-breaking “A Woman’s Heart” collection. Her collection “The Best of Dolores Keane” is out now.

Having won her battles with alcohol addiction and most recently, breast cancer, Dolores returns to The Olympia Theatre stage for a night of her most loved songs where she will be joined by long time friends to be announced at a later date.
