The veteran busker recently shared 'Live in Dublin', a collection of brilliant concert souvenirs from his stellar performances.
Monaghan singer-songwriter and guitarist Ryan Sheridan is slated to play Dolan's Warehouse in Limerick next Wednesday, October 13th, ahead of his 2022 German headline tour.
Initially finding success as a busker, the multi-instrumentalist has built up a reputation as one of the country's most popular performers – releasing two acclaimed album, The Day You Live Forever and Here and Now, through Rubyworks.
Sheridan’s career hit stellar heights in 2010 upon the release of feel-good tunes ‘Jigsaw’ and ‘The Dreamer’, with the talent sharing a brand new single 'Fine Wine' recently to add to his catalogue of gems.
'Fine Wine' is an Americana country-tinged track which heads in a new direction for Sheridan; one which the musician intends to explore further on his forthcoming third album for Rubyworks.
Speaking about his new song, Ryan said, “Fine Wine’ is about the people that make your life better. The people who pick you up when you’re down, listen to you when you need to talk and tell you some hard truths when you need to listen.

It was written on the back of a new Americana covers album that I produced over lock down. It was a new direction I was exploring, and this is the first song I wrote in that style.”
His third album will be a love letter to the likes of Chris Stapleton, The Black Keys and Nathaniel Rateliff, and a collection of personally curated cover songs that span decades and genres.
2021 single 'Fine Wine' went to No.1 on the iTunes chart when it landed, beating the likes of fellow contemporaries Dermot Kennedy and Ed Sheeran. Ryan later performed his first gig in almost two years in the Gleneagle INEC, Killarney in August of this year.
Sheridan's Dolans gig comes before his German headline tour, which has been rescheduled to next May.
Ryan began his performing career at the age of 15, in the acclaimed ‘Riverdance the show’, touring the Americas, Europe and Asia. By age 18, he had relocated to New York City to perform in the Gershwin Theatre on Broadway. Here, Ryan's interest in songwriting flourished. Returning to Ireland, Sheridan was chosen as a guest for Paul Simon, Brian Adams, Taylor Swift, Simply Red, The Script and Rea Garvey after building up a reputation for his energetic live shows.
In 2021, Ryan became a featured Artist & Producer for SE Electronics, working with the likes of the High Kings, Aine Cahill and Charles James Livingstone.
