About Me

Singer-songwriter and IRMA Award nominee Fiona Kennedy is a truly versatile artist. Fionas latest single Thats Not Love has been receiving extensive airplay all over Ireland since its release on 31st Oct. The success of her last album ‘Find Me’ along with a sell-out nationwide album tour places her firmly back where she belongs, in the top drawer of Irish female artists. Find Me was made Album of the Week on RTE Lyric Fm and a single release ‘All Together Now’, featured on the RTE Radio 1 Recommends List , reaching no.4 on the Irish & U.K. airplay chart. Two further tracks from the album reached no. 1 on the ITunes chart.

In 2024, Fiona created a highly acclaimed stage show called ‘Natural Woman’, songs that were inspired by ordinary women doing extraordinary things accompanied by readings, stories & projections. This creative & uplifting show received excellent reviews & sold out The Cork Arts Theatre for its entire run. The show has since had successful performances in The Briery Gap Theatre, The Inkwell Theatre & The Glen Theatre Banteer.

Fionas latest single, ‘Thats Not Love’ is a song from the Natural Woman show and is receiving exceptional airplay. An album of all the songs from the show is due for release in early 2026. Available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music & Bandcamp.

Kennedy has had her own one hour TV special on RTE in the early years of her career, and has supported international artists such as Carole King, Kris Kristofferson & John Martyn.
