Killarney Rotary Club will host their Young Musician of The Year competition next weekend.

The 18th annual contest will unfold in the Kerry Diocesan Youth Centre, Fairhill on March 9 & 10 and the associated concert will take centre stage in The Gleneagle Acoustic Club on Saturday, March 10 at 7.30pm.

The competition offers rising stars of the music world an unrivalled opportunity to showcase their talents. “The Killarney Rotary Young Musician competition was established by Killarney Rotarians Barry Murphy and Sean Treacy in 2001,” said Killarney Rotary president Eduard Schmidt Zorner.

“Its success is a testament to the young musicians of Kerry and their parents. Everyone is welcome to enjoy the concert in The Gleneagle Acoustic Club. Tickets are available in advance or on the door on the night.”

Killarney-based musician Shane Doolan will release his latest single, ‘SPACEMAN’, this Friday, December 19.

The new track is described as an atmospheric release exploring themes of ambition, isolation, and the desire to escape everyday limits. The single showcases Doolan’s evolving sound, combining emotional storytelling with cinematic production.
The release follows a significant year for the young artist. Earlier in 2024, Doolan headlined his first live show at The Anam Centre in Killarney. The event was a major local success, raising over €1,055 for Movember, the men’s health charity.
Doolan, who first gained local attention after his band won the Battle of the Bands at the Anam Centre, has cited influences such as Walking on Cars, Bon Iver, and Kodaline. Following his September debut, “The Ruins,” and his second single, “After The Bells,” he is currently working toward a debut EP set for release in January 2026.
‘SPACEMA’ will be available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and all major streaming platforms from this Friday.
