Dermot's anticipated album The Weight of the Woods drops April 3 on Interscope Records. Ahead of its release, several tracks have been unveiled including most recently, "Honest," the anthemic, passionate lead single "Funeral," and the stunning track "Refuge."

In the run-up to album release, Dermot recently surprised fans at intimate pop-up shows in both Los Angeles and New York City, with more up-close-and-personal shows happening currently at record stores in the UK. It was also just announced that Dermot will perform at the UK's Radio 1's Big Weekend on May 24, alongside Olivia Dean among others on the main stage.

The Weight of the Woods was largely written and recorded at a studio near Kennedy's home in rural Ireland, alongside close collaborator Gabe Simon [Noah Kahan, Lana Del Rey]. Additional material for the album was also recorded at Simon's studio in Nashville. Across its fourteen tracks, the album's poetry and music draw inspiration, energy, and strength from Kennedy's native Ireland.
