Few singers are as celebrated and revered as Cara Dillon. Her captivating live performances, breathtaking voice and emotional delivery leave audiences spellbound. Her longstanding partnership with Sam Lakeman has ensured they have remained at the very pinnacle of the folk genre for over two decades.

Coming Home is Cara’s first new material in nearly six years. She effortlessly blurs the lines between spoken word and song to stunning effect. Personal memories, her native County Derry, and the people, places and customs she holds closest to her heart are brought to vibrant life. Cara reveals a new-found freedom to express herself within the tiniest of details and life’s larger mysteries. Her beautiful new material is skilfully woven through with beloved songs from her catalogue.

Join Cara and her band as she shares this unique collection of poems, accompanied by original music written by Sam Lakeman.

Quite possibly the world’s most beautiful female voice. ★★★★ Q Magazine
