Dublin-based trio Slow Moving Clouds have just announced the release date of their sophomore album, Starfall.

Starfall follows on from their 2015 debut of Os and will be released on 21 September.

The band are renowned for creating atmospheric folk by combining Irish and Nordic traditions with baroque strings and falsetto vocals.

Starfall will see their folk roots merge with more indie and experimental sounds in a euphoric blend that expands on earlier works.

This can be seen in the group's latest music video for their single 'Trin'.

Their first album was well-received critically and drew comparisons to both Irish traditional group The Gloaming and Icelandic post-rock legends Sigur Ros.
