Powerhouse singer-songwriter, Dermot Kennedy lands in the Official US Billboard Top 200 Album Chart at Number 18 with his groundbreaking debut album WITHOUT FEAR.

Dermot’s soaring debut follows two hit singles from his album, ‘Power Over Me’, which reached Number 1 in the airplay charts in France, Germany and Belgium and achieved Triple Platinum in Ireland, Platinum in the Netherlands and Switzerland and Gold in Canada, and ‘Outnumbered’, sitting on BBC Radio 1’s A-list, Number 10 on the Adult Album Alternative Radio chart and steadily climbing the UK charts since its release, currently at Number 8 in the Official Chart. Dermot’s global streaming numbers also continue to rise with over 600 million streams across all platforms and 9 million+ monthly listeners on Spotify alone. Recent praise comes from the likes of the Los Angeles Times, TIME Magazine, The New York Times, NPR, Complex and Billboard.

About Dermot Kennedy
Dermot Kennedy is Ireland’s rising star who’s making waves globally. The 27-year-old received his first guitar at 11-years-old, and “got serious” six years later before a chance encounter with his musical hero, Glen Hansard, who gave him his first big break. After spotting Dermot performing on the streets of Dublin, the Irish songwriter offered Dermot ten minutes onstage at his sold-out Christmas show where Dermot performed his 2016 single ‘After Rain.’ The response was immediate: the track racked up 55m million streams on Spotify.
Since then, Dermot has spent significant time performing across the UK, Europe and America with his fan base growing massively and the accolades continually rolling in. He has been hailed as NPR Slingshot’s ‘Best New Artist of 2018’, as voted for by readers and US fans and named a 2019 key artist to watch by BBC’s Sound Of, YouTube, Ticketmaster and MTV.
