Dermot Kenny wants to be kissed.

Irish singer-songwriter “Dermot Kennedy” has been described as a master storyteller who marries poignant lyrics about love’s intensity with an infectious, hook-laden melody that immediately draws the listener in. Dermot started playing guitar at age 10, and writing songs at age 14. His parents were very supportive. Dermot credits his father for frequently driving him into Dublin to perform at open mic nights when he was underage. His mother submitted an application for him to study classical music at “Maynooth” University where he spent three years. He released his debut album, Without Fear, in 2019. His new album, Sonder, is out now and the single, Kiss Me, is new this week on RadiJohan.
