TADHG WILLIAMS
plus support
Whelan’s Upstairs • Sat 7th December 2025
“Tadhg is a poet who conjures songs both humorous and moving, rich in humanity.” – Junior Brother
“A man with many artistic pots on the boil. He is a man on the path, walk on brother” – David Keenan
Dubbed ‘one of Ireland’s most thrilling emerging songwriters’ by Hot Press magazine, Tadhg Williams returns with his first single after nearly three years. ‘Nixer’ is a fast-paced folk track with a catchy hook and dynamic production, and acts as a commentary on how the cost of living crisis has affected Ireland’s youth over the last couple of years.
“I suppose when you’re trying to support yourself in a city as expensive as Dublin, and you see your friends and colleagues trying to do the same, you realise why so many people are emigrating again. ‘Nixer’ is very much that story – of a city that’s being stripped of its culture and identity in favour of hotels and office blocks, and its people barely being able to afford to live in it anymore.”
Over the past three years, Tadhg has worked to develop his stage craft, supporting a variety of acts from Mary Black and The Stunning to Kingfishr and Niamh Regan. He has also completed an undergraduate degree in history, which has been a huge source of inspiration for his songwriting. In 2023, a small Irish tour road-tested these songs alongside a band, before going into the studio with producer, Geoff Warner-Clayton (Gavin James, Kingfishr, Driven Snow), to further develop and record some of these tracks.
