Fresh off a meteoric rise that has seen them sell out venues across Europe and North America — including a triumphant sold-out show at King John’s Castle in 2025 — Amble continue to captivate audiences with their spellbinding harmonies, poetic storytelling, and raw acoustic sound.

The West-of-Ireland trio have amassed over 100 million streams and built a global following thanks to beloved tracks like “Mariner Boy,” “Mary’s Pub,” and “Lonely Island,” alongside their deeply anticipated debut album Reverie, recorded live together in a circle to preserve their intimate, organic magic.

The band was originally formed by Cunningham and McCaffrey as a duo in 2022. Their main aim was to play cover songs in pubs to obtain free pints. McNerney was added to the band due to his skills playing the mandolin and banjo. By 2024, all three members had quit their jobs after signing a recording contract with Warner Records.

Returning to Limerick, fans can expect a powerful, emotional evening from a group whose rise feels as heartfelt and honest as their music.

Amble's energy has resonated with fans worldwide, culminating in a completely sold-out 2025 headline tour across the UK, Europe, Australia, Canada, and the US. Dolans presents

Speaking at the launch Mick Dolan Says “We are delighted to announce Amble as the first act for Live at the Docklands 2026. Their sold-out King John’s Castle show last year was a landmark moment, and seeing their journey from those early days to worldwide stages has been incredible. Amble brings a rare sincerity and connection to their performances — this Docklands show will be something truly special.”

The trio’s energy has resonated with fans worldwide, culminating in a completely sold-out 2025 headline tour across the UK, Europe, Australia, Canada, and the US. In 2025, Amble joined Hozier’s Unreal Unearth Tour, appearing as an opening act in Boston (Massachusetts), Casper (Wyoming) and Toronto (Ontario). They have quickly built a reputation for descriptive storytelling, heartfelt lyrics, and powerful live performances.
