Other Voices Festival has released a new wave of additions to their lineup including the unveiling of the RTÉ 2FM Rising Stage, which will feature the talents of Somebody’s Child, Fehdah and Vulpynes. The festival, hosted in Dingle from 29 November to 1 December, is set to be jam-packed with music performances and various events.
The IMRO Other Room will be held in Paul Geaney's Yard and will feature performances from Wicklow songwriter Anna Mieke, indie singer-songwriter A. Smyth, experimental folk artist Junior Brother and noise-pop sextet Thumper. In addition, Other Voices has just announced Waterford hip-hop artist Alex Gough as this year's IMRO Open Call Artist. The IMRO Other Room is an open gig to all Music Trail Wristband holders.
Other Voices has also revealed the Music Trail West, which takes festival-goers beyond the streets of Dingle on Sunday, 1 December to enjoy off-the-beaten-track performances in various locations around the Dingle Peninsula. As part of this "musical mystery tour," artists remain a mystery until passengers reach each stop. The tour includes five surprise performances at five unique venues. Lunch is included in addition to bus fare for the day, all priced at €25. Only 100 tickets will be available through Kennedy Coaches festival folks for this hot-ticket item.
