His EP and singles have cracked the Irish radio and album charts, with his self-released EP reaching the heights of number two.

Now, with Mayo Day just around the corner, the rising star is getting set for a concert in Killala.

Mr Heidi, alongside MacDara Ó’Dwyer,  will be performing to local crowds in the beautiful setting of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, Killala, on Friday, May 2 at 8 pm.

For Brad, this was an opportunity he couldn’t pass up.

“There’s something really special about bringing music to unique places like Killala Cathedral,” he stated. “It’s not just about performing, it’s about connecting with people in a way that feels real. I can’t wait to share this night with everyone and be part of the Mayo Day buzz.”

Tickets to the event can be purchased here. Tickets are priced at €20.
