The second album from Dublins For Those I Love, Carving the Stone is a stark and stirring portrait of modern Irish life.

Expanding the intimate world of his acclaimed debut, David Balfe turns his lens outward – grappling with the pressures of working-class survival, the erosion of home, and the passage of time. Set to soaring instrumentals and raw spoken word, this is his most direct, urgent work to date: a deeply human collection of songs rooted in memory, resistance, and emotional honesty.
