Rose Dogs and Blackwood Pew

Rose Dogs and Blackwood Pew pairs Muireann Bradley’s acclaimed 2025 EP Rose Dogs with the new collection Blackwood Pew. It features three new original songs, including Not Going Back, alongside reworked classics. The title nods to the custom Australian Blackwood guitar heard across every recording.

Still only 19, Bradley brings intricate fingerstyle blues, folk and country-blues into sharp, elegant focus. There’s real ease in the playing here, where technical brilliance never overshadows the feeling. These are finely detailed, beautifully shaped performances with a natural, deeply human pull.

Her gift for inhabiting songs written decades before she was born has already earned international attention, with appearances on Jools Holland's Hootenanny and The Late Late Show. Debut album I Kept These Old Blues also became an instant collector’s item, selling out its first pressing.
