Saturday 6th July, 8pm will feature a collaboration between two of the Ireland’s most forward-thinking musical propositions, fresh off a brilliant RTE Other Voices appearance  — Eoin O’Callaghan AKA Elma Orkestra and Ryan Vail. They present their award winning new BORDERS album with a live musical performance featuring cinematic visuals and a unique laser show. 

Support comes from one of Ireland’s most exciting young acts ROE. Winner of ‘Best Emerging Artist’ at the 2018 Northern Ireland Music Prize and Irish Times Artist of the Week, ROE is 20-year-old multi-instrumentalist from Derry (Ireland), Roisin Donald. Laying down her unique brand of self-styled “Grumpy Electro-Pop”, she has been blazing a trail for young female indie artists across Ireland, UK, Europe and beyond.
