Here’s everything you need to know about Kingfishr’s Glasgow shows, including their setlist, support act, stage times and more.
Irish indie-folk group Kingfishr are set to play two sold out shows in Glasgow this Sunday.
Formed in Limerick in 2022, the band released their debut album Halcyon last August with their two gigs at the O2 Academy quickly selling out. Kingfishr have since announced two further Scottish shows for Edinburgh in August.
It follows their headline performance at Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom in November 2025, where they were joined by Jack Cullen.
