Daniel O’Donnell, one of Ireland’s most cherished entertainers, has announced the release of his brand-new album Now and Then, out on 3rd October 2025 via Demon Records. The album will be available on CD, vinyl, and as a 2CD deluxe edition—and fans in Stockport will have a special chance to hear the new material live when Daniel performs at the Stockport Plaza on 10th October as part of his upcoming UK tour.

With a career spanning over four decades, Daniel O’Donnell has become a true national treasure. The Donegal-born singer has sold more than 10 million albums worldwide, earned 12 gold-selling albums, and secured 11 Top 30 singles. His enduring appeal lies in his unmistakable voice, his warmth on stage, and his ability to connect with audiences across generations.

At a time when Irish music is finding fresh popularity among younger fans, Daniel remains a proud ambassador for the tradition, while also celebrating how today’s rising stars are carrying it forward. “There’s nothing new about it, but young people are drinking it up,” he says. “This music is done with heart.”

Now and Then sees Daniel returning to the music that shaped his early years, blending brand-new originals with classic covers. The 14-track collection includes his take on John Denver’s Take Me Home, Country Roads, Don Williams’ You’re My Best Friend, Keith Whitley’s When You Say Nothing at All, and Stevie Wonder’s I Just Called to Say I Love You. Alongside these timeless hits, the album features new works from acclaimed Irish songwriters such as Don Mescall and Patsy Kavanagh, offering heartfelt stories of love, loss, and resilience.

For O’Donnell, this project is about honouring his roots while looking forward: “It’s the best of everything I love to sing,” he says.

In support of the album, Daniel embarks on a UK tour from 9–15 October, with shows in Bridlington, Stockport, Croydon, Llandudno, Newcastle, and Edinburgh. The tour marks a significant moment in his career, as he plans to take a sabbatical in 2026 after 45 years on the road.

The deluxe edition of Now and Then also features a second disc of duets and collaborations with legends including Charley Pride, Loretta Lynn, Dominic Kirwan, Derek Ryan, and Mary Duff, offering fans a rich and varied listening experience.
