VILLAGERS

Conor O'Brien has made countless incredible Other Voices appearances over the past two decades but this one feels extra special. Villagers join us to perform songs from the beautiful Fever Dreams record which came out last year and Conor catches up with Huw in the Living Room to talk music, memories of Other Voices and his contribution to our anniversary photobook.

TOLÜ MAKAY

Tolü Makay's genre-bending music made her one of of the breakout stars of 2021 and she hits the Other Voices stage this week for a stunning debut. Get ready for a shimmering performance from one of the most exciting new voices of Ireland.

HousePlants

Paul Noonan and Daithí Ó Drónaí have are no strangers to the Other Voices stage but we get to fall in love with their music all over through their new creative vision HousePlants. They play an effortlessly cool electronic set in the Hillgrove and chat to MayKay about how it all started.

Brìghde Chaimbeul
