RTÉ 2FM is naming acts and artists to see, listen to and enjoy in 2024...
Galway based singer-songwriter Brad Heidi - who recently won the BAI Radio / Hotpress Irish Music Month's "A New Local Hero" award - is fast becoming the next Irish singer-songwriter to break through.
Brad has been travelling around Ireland busking, with just his acoustic guitar and a suitcase full of heartfelt songs. He was spotted by Collective Mgmt just before the lockdown and now Brad has gone from busking on the streets to selling out his first shows, playing the Main Stage at Electric Picnic 2023 - he has also recently opened for music legend Billy Joel in Hyde Park, London.
His self-released EP reached No.2 on the independent Irish album chart and his singles Dancing In My Head and Nobody But You have already broken the Top 40 on the Irish radio charts. Brad has also mastered TikTok, where he has reached 1 million likes and was crowned as the No.1 Most Followed Irish artist in 2022.
