David James and Friends

David James, a native of Letterkenny in County Donegal, discovered his passion for country music at a young age. He first fell in love with the genre when he attended “The Country Fest” in Letterkenny with his brother Gerard. “I was bitten by the show band bug and ever since that day I knew it was exactly what I wanted to do,” David recalled. He began performing at the tender age of 14, taking the stage in local pubs and clubs across Donegal, Derry and Tyrone.

Over the years, David has honed his craft on stages throughout Ireland and the United Kingdom. He has become an accomplished singer and entertainer, and has recorded three studio albums to date. His growing reputation has attracted a loyal following, and he is now a regular feature at country music events across the region.

The upcoming shows will see David share the stage with well‑known country acts Hugo Duncan and Trionagh Allen. Their combined experience and talent promise a lively evening for fans of the genre. The line‑up is part of a broader programme of country music weekends scheduled for May and June at the Abbey Hotel, where several big names are slated to perform.

Fans of David’s music can look forward to a night of energetic performances and classic country tunes. The event will showcase the vibrant country music scene that thrives in County Donegal and beyond, reflecting the community’s love for the genre.
