On a night bathed in warm Derry’s evening light, David Kitt took to the stage at Féile 2026, igniting the Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin with a musical experience that was both intimate and expansive. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation as the audience eagerly awaited the legendary singer-songwriter's set pieces from his celebrated album "The Big Romance." His voice cut through the crowd like a sharp instrument, carrying each song with a power and precision that resonated deeply among the appreciative listeners.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of his landmark album, The Big Romance, David Kitt will perform at Féile 2026 on Saturday August 15th
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of his landmark debut album, The Big Romance, David Kitt will perform live at Féile 2026 on Saturday August 15th at Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin in Derry.
The Big Romance featured the singles 'Song From Hope St. (Brooklyn, NY)' and 'You Know What I Wanna Know' and sold 60,000 copies in Ireland alone and marked a major shift in David Kitt’s life as a musician and performer.
Originally released on Warner Music, Kitt reflects: “the contract I signed back then means they own the rights to the album “for the universe forever”, apparently. Great! I approached them about a vinyl reissue for the 10th and 20th anniversaries and got nowhere. So, for the 25th anniversary, I decided to take matters into my own hands and make a version of the album that I own myself and I'm free to press on vinyl.”
‘The Big Romance (Kittser's Version)’ is out now on All City Records. Earlier this year, David Kitt marked the anniversary and the album’s release with two sold out shows at The National Concert Hall in Dublin.
Tickets go on sale at eventbrite.com on Friday 12th June at 10am.
