We're bringing you a selection of the homegrown acts primed for a major breakthrough in 2022...

DONAL LUCEY

Radio Kerry’s ‘A New Local Hero’ winner released his debut ‘Another Love Song’ single in 2019. He’s made big strides in his storytelling and vocal abilities since then, as proven by 2021’s offering ‘Politics Of The Heart’. There’s a definite whiff of Ed Sheeran about both tunes, with gentle guitar-plucking and a soft-yet-commanding voice at the forefront. We're hoping the Killarney-based artist has more singles in the pipeline for 2022...

Hear: ‘Politics Of The Heart’
