Anuv Jain

Anuv Jain brings his stripped-back folk-pop to Dublin on 1 October 2026 at The Academy. The Indian singer-songwriter moves with ease between gentle fingerpicking and clear, uncluttered melodies, writing songs that sit close to the skin. Known for tracks like Baarishein and Maula, he leans on acoustic guitar or ukulele to frame stories of love, absence and the pull of memory. His warm tone and measured delivery keep the focus on words and mood, letting small details carry the weight rather than big arrangements.

Live, he plays it straight and honest: a voice up front, strings doing the groundwork, space left for silences and shifts in intensity. The set flows from intimate ballads to relaxed mid-tempo pieces, always centred on storytelling and the chemistry in the room. No theatrics, just songs that take their time and land without forcing it. This date at The Academy puts his writing in the foreground, in a format that highlights the grain of his voice and the quiet tension of his melodies.
