Ireland’s leading folk group, The High Kings, are set to thrill audiences once again with the launch of their Rocky Road to Dublin Tour 2026.
Celebrated worldwide as ambassadors of Irish heritage and storytelling, The High Kings have built a global following through their signature blend of classic folk tradition and contemporary flair. The Rocky Road Tour will deliver a dynamic celebration of Irish culture, energy, and musicianship.
'A Folk Juggernaut' – The New York Times
A major milestone came with their inclusion on the soundtrack of Sinners, the current #1 movie worldwide starring Michael B. Jordan and directed by Ryan Coogler. The film’s chart‑topping soundtrack, curated by Oscar- and Grammy‑winning composer Ludwig Göransson, features two High Kings tracks, 'The Rocky Road to Dublin' and 'Go Lassie Go.' Göransson, a long-time admirer, hand‑picked the songs after attending the band’s sold-out Troubadour performance.
The Rocky Road Tour 2026 builds on this global success with a high‑energy show that highlights The High Kings’ storytelling, musicianship, and deep commitment to honouring and evolving Ireland’s folk legacy.
