Dani Larkin - Next of Kin Pre Order (Jan 31st)

LP - Black Vinyl and CD. Pressed by Anthem Vinyl in Co. Kildare, Ireland. Dani Larkin follows her critically acclaimed “Notes For A Maiden Warrior” with “Next Of Kin”, coming in January 2026.

Next of Kin is the second album by acclaimed songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Dani Larkin. The album offers a first glimpse at the stunning progression of her sound, fusing her signature storytelling with bold new sonic textures to create tracks that are as urgent as they are unforgettable.

“Next Of Kin is a snapshot of what it means to be human in today's world. A sonic landscape within which contradiction and connection are explored through the fundamental and universal aspects of humanity; love, fear, loss, beauty, doubt and courage. It’s intended as a companion through the different stages of life, from birth, with Morning, to greeting death as an old friend in Danny Boy. A pondering on who or what is Next Of Kin. The first single, End Of It All, is offered as a song of the times.” says Larkin.

The critical success of her debut album from 2021, Notes For A Maiden Warrior, garnered Folk Award and Northern Ireland Music Prize nominations and led Larkin to tour with Snow Patrol, Lisa O’Neill, Glen Hansard, Lisa Hannigan, Rufus Wainwright and Ye Vagabonds as well as collaborations with the Ulster Orchestra and RTÉ Concert Orchestra.
