Damien Dempsey (nascido em 1975 no subúrbio de Dublin, capital da Irlanda) é um cantor e compositor irlandês.
Dempsey, em suas músicas, mixa o tradicional folk irlandês com letras contemporâneas a fim de comentar sobre os aspectos positivos e negativos que estão surgindo junto à crescente economia da República da Irlanda. Ele canta em inglês e, em algumas raras ocasiões, em irlandês.
