Louis O’Hara & Gem Stark

Join Louis O'Hara and Gem Stark for an intimate concert at gofod, our new events and exhibitions space at Wright's in Llanarthne. 

Louis O’Hara is is a singer-songwriter from Pembroke Dock, west Wales. His cinematic folk has been described by The Guardian as "unusually touching and truly lovely." Influenced by Bill Callahan and Lou Reed, Louis' music is rooted in poetic lyricism, memory and a strong sense of place.

Louis' debut album, A Peaceful Kind of Fun, was released by Libertino Records in 2025, with Clash calling it “quietly magical” and Hard of Hearing praising it as an “outstanding debut album.” Since then, O’Hara has completed three UK headline tours and established himself as one of Wales’ most compelling emerging voices. A darker, more cinematic second album is due on December 11th, 2026.

Listen to Louis' latest album here.

Gem Stark’s beautiful "moth-bitten folk tendencies" are an ideal accompaniment, with her latest single, Penguin Random House, produced by Louis. Her music has been described as "recognisable to audiences that have cried to the hum of a PAT-failed lamp in a second hand bookshop anywhere within the speculative radius of the Peak District."
