Nu Folk in da Village

This five-piece indie folk band from Ireland are fronted by Conor O'Brien and have supported Neil Young, Tracy Chapman and Elbow.

Their debut album ‘Becoming a Jackal’ earned them a Mercury prize shortlisting and O'Brien himself won an Ivor Novelllo award for the album's title track in 2011.

Their second Album "Awayland" introduced a dash of electronica to their sound and the Guardian praised it as creating "an eerie sense of disquiet".

This will be Villagers' debut performance at T so prepare to be blown away by O'Brien's literate and imaginative storytelling.
