Heron Red

Heron Red is a musical project born from the creative spark between two artists, Molly Buchan and Callum Wall. 

With a sound that fuses vibes from The Waterboys, Dolly Parton, and The Mamas & Papas, Heron Red is a dynamic folk duo with a full-band sound. The band blends traditional Irish music with Americana, country, and Traditional folk. The duo crafts music that ranges from stripped-back storytelling, echoing the poetic depth of Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, to the soaring, full-bodied energy of The Waterboys and Planxty.

In 2025, the band played over 50 shows in renowned venues and festivals across Ireland, the UK, and Europe, from the intimate charm of De Barra’s in Clonakilty to the high ceilings of Cork City Hall, All Together Now in Waterford,  Victorious festival in Portsmouth, Galway Folk Festival, and the influential Output Festival in Belfast.

This past year, Heron Red's momentum has continued to grow, with over 5.5 million views on their TikTok page in just a few months. Recent highlights include being selected to play for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on their 2025 annual global exhibition in Ireland, supporting Irish legends like Bell X1 and Damien Dempsey after the release of their self-titled debut EP, recorded by Daniel de Burca, who previously recorded 2026's 'Irish Song of the Year' (Amble - Schoolyard Days). 

This four-song EP was a great success for the band, amassing over 70,000 streams to date. In December 2025, the band were asked to feature and perform on Netflix's new show, 'Grown Ups'. Written by Irish novelist, Marian Keyes, this show is set to air in autumn 2026. 

Heron Reds' plans to progress in 2026 and 2027 are through continuing to tour Europe and the UK, focusing more on showcase gigs, festivals, and major support slots. The band spent some time in the studio in December of 2025, recording three new tracks for release in 2026. The band is set to record their first album live in studio this summer in County Kerry with de Burca.
