Next year’s edition will see Irish artists such as Kilkenny electro-pop duo 49th & Main, new-age Dublin songwriter Sammy Copley, Belfast-based outfit Chalk and Sorcha Richardson, fresh from the release of her second album Smiling Like An Idiot, share the stage with international artists such as indie-rock four-piece Vacations, Chicago born/LA-based Seb, and Edinburgh’s finest Calum Bowie.
Sottish singer-songwriter Katie Gregson-MacLeod will also make an appearance over the two days, following the viral success of her track ‘Complex’ and the recent release of her debut EP songs written for piano, which saw her featured in The New York Times and across the BBC. Minneapolis songwriter Ber, who generates over 1.6 million monthly Spotify listeners with tracks such as ‘Meant To Be’ and ‘I’m Not In Love’, is also set to play.
