Jamie McIntyre

On 11 October 2026 at The Louisiana in Bristol, Galway songwriter Jamie McIntyre brings a set rooted in contemporary folk and acoustic pop. His songs lean on clear melodies, close-up storytelling and a strong sense of place, the kind that turns small moments into scenes you can live in. After the 2024 single Over Galway Town, Jamie widened his audience with key stage steps: opening for Gavin James in Paris as part of Three’s City Stages, a slot at Electric Picnic, then support dates for Jamie Webster at Dublin’s 3Olympia and Belfast’s Telegraph Building. A collaboration with Imelda May followed, and in 2025 he hit the road for a first run across Ireland and the UK, from Dublin and Cork to Glasgow, London, Manchester and back to Galway.

Live, expect uncluttered arrangements and a direct voice that keeps the focus on the song. Tracks like Melbourne and Outside the City sketch travel, distance and home with a steady, unforced pulse. At The Louisiana, Jamie lines up intimate, guitar-led pieces and newer material shaped by the last two years on the move, keeping his Irish roots close while opening the door to a wider folk-pop audience.
