HOMELIGHTS Festival 2009 announced!

Presented by Adrian Crowley and Foggy Notions at Whelan's

The dates have been announced for HOMELIGHTS, a weekend of music and visuals co-curated by Irish recording artist Adrian Crowley and independent music promoters Foggy Notions. It is a sister festival to Adem's HOMEFIRES in London and the Fence Collective's HOMEGAME in Fife.

The line-up for the event will feature numerous artists who Adrian has forged friendships with on travels during his five album career to date, including some of the Fence Collective as well as legendary folk artists Vashti Bunyan and Andy Irvine.
