The amazingly talented Nile St, James will be playing Dolans on December 1st at 8:00 pm.
An artist that delves into realms of the heart and comes forth bearing brutally-honest lyrics and an emotionally fuelled performance of soaring, soulful vocals and captivating arrangements, Nile St. James is quickly establishing himself as a reputable soul artist in the Irish music industry.
A native to Limerick City, 24-year-old Nile St. James found solace in the arts at a young age, taking to the records of Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder to escape from every day, spiriting away into the world of 1950’s soul music.

With vocals rooted in these early day influences of soul, Nile merged his powerfully honed voice with raw and honest lyricism. With stories birthed from living in Dublin City for three years, Nile shares experiences of city life, love, loss and social injustice. The result is an artist that brings to the stage an emotional performance and story that tugs at the heartstrings of listeners.
