The 2016 installment of the Other Voices festival in Dingle, and attendant tapings for the TV series of the same name, were announced today in a video (above) featuring headliner Lisa Hannigan.

Heading into its fifteenth series, it remains one of the few outlets on Irish television for independent music.

Liza Geddes writes:

Between Friday 2nd and Sunday 4th of December, Lisa will join a slew of Irish and international artists to record the fifteenth series of the music TV show, which airs on RTÉ2 in 2017. The St. James’s Church recordings will be hosted by BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens, Dublin born/London made DJ and broadcaster Annie Mac and Fight Like Apes‘ leading light May Kay.

In an exclusive Other Voices performance filmed in Berlin, Lisa confirmed appearances in Dingle from internationally breaking Dublin hip hop artist Rejjie Snow, much lauded UK singer and writer Pixie Geldof, Californian musician and singer Margaret Glaspy, Rough Trade signed Irish indie act Girl Band and Mobo nominated musician, poet and artist Kojey Radical.

These and many more emerging and legacy artists will travel to Dingle for the December sessions.

Lisa also performed the track Snow from her latest No. 1 album At Swim, a taster of what to expect from the festival.

Tickets are will be given away free in various competitions, keep an eye on ’em here.

    I don’t mean to be too cool for school, but having a corporate title sponsor goes against the whole ethos of Other Voices as far as I’m concerned. John Kelly must be spinning in his Lyric FM grave… (because he’s a DJ you see, he spins discs. You wouldn’t understand.)

      +1 Mr Camomile T on the corporate sponsor. They couldn’t manage a telecoms company, not so good at sports channel either and now this! LOVE Lisa Hannigan though, what a pure gem.
