Other Voices artists Lisa Hannigan, James Vincent McMorrow and The Coronas are all set to play at this year’s Galway Arts Festival in June. Lisa and James take to the stage on Thursday 26th, with The Coronas performing the following night. This festival has proved itself to be a showcase of Irish musical talent over the past number of years, with Other Voices acts taking centre stage more than once.

A veteran of Other Voices, Hannigan’s appearances in Dingle over the years have seen her transform from Damien Rice’s timid collaborator to a confident and hugely capable solo artist. The success of her two albums, her debut Sea Sew in 2008 and last year’s Passenger, are testament to this. Now surrounded by her own band of seasoned musicians, Hannigan’s live show is certainly worth catching. She plays Dublin’s Vicar Street on March 16th.

Among a host of other acts playing on the night, Bell X1, And So I Watch You From Afar, Lisa Hannigan and Jape are set to perform at the Choice Music Awards in the Olympia Theatre, Dublin, on March 8th. Bell X1 and Lisa have both been nominated for the award on the night for their albums Bloodless Coup and Passenger respectively.

With the prize aimed at highlighting, promoting and showcasing the best of Irish music, it is unsurprising that this is not the first time that Other Voices’ artists have featured on the night, and in fact all of these artist have received nominations in previous years.
