Other Voices: London Calling

London Calling: Saint Sister ~ Michael McGoldrick ~ The Unthanks ~ Katie Melua

9pm | Friday 29 October | Live online from The Irish Embassy, London

________

We’re delighted to announce that we are bringing some Other Voices magic to the Irish Embassy this October for London Calling! 

Hosted by Annie Mac, Other Voices: London Calling will bring together some of the world’s brightest voices to perform songs for the head + the heart live from London.

On the night, revered eclectic folk act The Unthanks make a long-awaited return to the Other Voices stage, almost a decade on from their celebrated performance in The Church of St James.  After a breathtaking Courage 2020 performance, Saint Sister return to play songs from their stunning new album ‘Where I Should End’. There will also be a special performance from pioneering folk multi-instrumentalist Michael McGoldrick, while Belfast raised platinum-selling artist Katie Melua takes to the Other Voices stage for the first time for what’s set to be an extraordinary live performance.
