On today's episode we're bringing you conversations from a sunnier time, August in fact, when Danny Carroll travelled to the Treaty City - Limerick, and met some of the musicians performing at Féile na Gréine festival 2023.
Féile na Gréine is a free festival of emerging and experimental music, entirely volunteer led, with a DIY perspective, the festival celebrates art and community in an attempt to provoke moments of joy in spaces and places across Limerick city. This years festival takes place 23-25 August if you’d like to save the dates!
As well as hearing from two of the Féile na Gréine organisers, Chris Quigley and Diarmuid O'Shea, we’ll be hearing from the harpist Méabh McKenna, lo-fi singer-songwriter Robbie Stickland, synth-wave artist Coolgirl, and the indie-rock trio Search Results.
