Lunatraktors - Award-winning ‘broken folk’ experimentalists — Lunatraktors strip down Anglo-Celtic traditionals to the bare bones of vocal harmony and percussive dance, before expanding into weird, playful spaces with eclectic acoustic beats, accordion, whistles and deep drones. Ancient and contemporary, mournful and joyously deranged, Lunatraktors are ‘simply different’ (RTÉ Lyric FM). MOJO Top Ten Folk Albums 2019 & 2021.
Goblin Band - They can play and they can sing and they’re fearless… When I saw Goblin Band singing recently, I just thought, “Why didn’t I think of that?… They move stuff around… They go back to versions that we were too snotty to touch and they turn them into stomps.
