In a world of shuttered music venues and snatched-away opportunities, Ireland’s music community continues to defy the odds – with young, emerging artists defiantly rising above seemingly insurmountable challenges, and flying the flag for their country. This bold energy, independent ethos and genre-defying talent is evident across our list of Hot For 2021 Irish Acts – which features artists from every corner of Ireland.
Michelle Grimes:
This 22-year-old singer-songwriter originally wowed judges on Ireland’s Got Talent. A former member of girl band Office Girls, Michelle is now studying music and dance at the University of Limerick. A fine singer, having performed with Hermitage Green as backing vocalist and at the launch of the Limerick LGBTQ+ Pride event, she is now getting lots of attention from Irish radio.
