Lorraine Nash, noted as “The Future of Irish Folk” by The Irish Independent, graced Australia's prestigious stages and long-running folk festivals, such as Port Fairy Folk Festival, Blue Mountains Folk Festival, and Nannup Music Festival in early 2024 - all this at the age of 25yrs!
Born in County Kerry, Nash began her musical journey at six years of age, becoming a talented multi-instrumentalist of traditional Irish music - Fiddle, Harp, Tin Whistle, Flute - she incorporates many elements of this into her current recordings, while also drawing from her love of Folk, Country, and Americana.
Citing an array of influences from Emmylou Harris, and Gillian Welch to Laura Marling, Lorraine remains authentic to her own style and songwriting sensitivity. In the wake of her debut album “All That I Can Be” critic John Meagher said of Lorraine, “If Neil Young was the master at writing songs that get to the heart of the human condition, the same can be said of Nash's from-the-heart compositions.
