Blair Dunlop

Dunlop has firmly established himself as one of Britain’s most compelling contemporary artists. In 2024, he released his fifth studio album Out of the Rain to widespread critical praise. His sixth album is set for release in October 2026.

Blair Dunlop is an award-winning British singer-songwriter and guitarist who has released five studio albums and a live record, touring extensively around the world. While his achievements in a relatively short career are impressive, it is his lyrical depth and musical maturity that truly set him apart from his peers.

His third album Gilded (2016), released on his own label Gilded Wings, was widely acclaimed and earned BBC Radio 2 playlist status for the singles “The Egoist” and “356”. This followed the success of House of Jacks (2014), which built on the promise of his debut Blight and Blossom (2012) — an album that helped secure him the BBC Radio 2 Horizon Award.
