Speaking with Hot Press about Other Voices at its 2017 launch back in September were presenter, May-Kay and David McGloughlin of Le Galaxie. “It’s quite something to step into that world. There is a unique feeling around the town and venues. When Le Galaxie first got up on the stage in 2016, we couldn’t figure out how dance music could work in a church, but people are so responsive. It’s a cauldron of love for music and it offers the best for all genres.”

“Other Voices is a healthy environment for new artists to be in”, May Kay continues. “It is built on every act's ambition, enthusiasm and reliability. Nobody has been half-booked either, the quality is incredible from the church to the Music Trail and more importantly, nobody is above or below anyone else.”
