The Story So Far

Claudia Buckley is an award winning performer and vocalist, from Athenry in Co. Galway.

With three “Female Entertainer Of The Year” award wins under her belt, Claudia is one of the leading country music stars in Ireland. She has two number 1 albums in the charts featuring hits such as “Diane”, “Come On In” and her breakthrough single “Drinking with Dolly” which has credited Claudia her own stamp on the country music scene in Ireland and beyond. 

Claudia has achieved record breaking success as she has massed a huge following of all ages who travel far and wide to see her perform with her five piece band at dance halls, theatres and at festivals both at home in Ireland and overseas.

Of course, some would say it was inevitable that Claudia would pursue a career in music, following firmly in the footsteps of her father, Country music legend Jimmy Buckley. He speaks fondly with pride about Claudia’s love for her craft  “I knew music would find her, she got bitten by the music bug at a very young age. I’m so happy that the public have taken to her wonderful personality, and she has the talent to match, I could not be more proud if I tried.”

With further plans to tour Ireland, the UK, Scotland and beyond next year the future proves bright for Claudia and she speaks excitedly of her plans. “I’ve been so lucky to be able to put in the hard graft required to make music work this passed year. I’ve met some really fantastic people and I’m so grateful that through this I have gained loyal fans for life who love music just as much as I do, I’m beyond excited for what the future holds for me.. country music runs through my veins, all I have ever wanted to do is make people happy with my music. I look forward to seeing you back on stage. Buckle up for 2025! It’s gonna be a busy one!”
