FOLK troubadour and fly-fisherman Chuck Ragan is set to take to the stage at Dolans.

To celebrate his newest album Love or Lore, Chuck Ragan has announced a headline UK/Ireland tour for April 2025. 

His Limerick show will take place on April 24 in Dolans, kicking off his spring tour.

With the release of the singles Echo the Halls and Wild In Our Ways, the new album strays from what fans would expect from the artist.

The new single ‘One more shot’ from Chuck’s album features Paige Overton, of country band Paige and the Overtones.

A song of heartbreak and standing between stubbornness and apology, which Chuck outlines; “There’s so much heartbreak that comes with this life and I’m not just talking about myself, I’m talking about the people around me.

“As someone who spends a lot of time away from my loved ones, there’s a lot of darkness at times and a lot of questions—and a lot of these songs are very much reflective of that and very much about therapy and finding peace and solace in nature, on the water and with loved ones,” Chuck explains.

Ragan has toured the globe extensively for the past two decades and has become a household name in both the folk and punk communities.

He has also written a book, The Road Most Traveled (2012), which compiles anecdotes about life on the road, and an award-winning documentary Landsick based on his balance between music, his fishing, and his family, was released in 2018.
