27/02/26 - FUAIM Concert: Fiona Kennedy
Fiona Kennedy Trio
Fiona Kennedy – voice, guitar
Paul Seymour – piano
Billy Kennedy – guitar
Singer-songwriter and IRMA Award nominee Fiona Kennedy is a truly versatile artist. Fiona’s latest single, That’s Not Love, received extensive airplay all over Ireland after its release and the success of her last album Find Me along with a sell-out nationwide album tour places her firmly 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.
A proud graduate of University College Cork (BA Hons Italian and German), Fiona was a regular performer in the UCC College Bar in the 80s, and is delighted to be back on campus to take to the Aula Maxima stage with bandmates Paul Seymour (piano) and Billy Kennedy (guitar).
“Cork singer Fiona Kennedy is set for stardom."
Daniel O' Donnell, Sunday World
