Following on from a spectacular sold-out live debut in March, Ireland’s pre-eminent music podcast NO ENCORE will once again take to the stage at Whelan’s on Thursday September 28.

The event takes place as part of the first ever Dublin Podcast Festival, presented by HeadStuff and Aiken Promotions, and will see hosts Dave Hanratty, Colm O’Regan and Craig Fitzpatrick recording an episode live from one of the capital’s most storied venues.

They won’t be alone, either, with three of the country’s most exciting live acts for company – sets from instrumental behemoths Overhead, The Albatross, West-coast wunderkind Daithí and electronic luminary Elaine Mai are also part of what’s guaranteed to be another extraordinary night of entertainment.

It’s another milestone in an already impressive year, which has seen the podcast go from strength to strength in their second season. As well as wowing a capacity Workman’s Club crowd to bring up the half-century, the show has welcomed lively interviewees including Hamilton Leithauser, Girl Band and Ho99o9 – and continued to further its status as an incisive, irreverent and unmissable jaunt through the world of music.

There will be no holds barred. There will be no apologies. And there will be NO ENCORE LIVE.
