Featuring:
Opening Act: Uisce Jones. Kick off the evening with the soulful sounds of Uisce Jones and his band. Uisce Jones is an indie folk artist from South Galway, where he grew up surrounded by some of Ireland's last remaining oak forests.
Getting lost in the woods and recording all of his work in a small remote cabin, Uisce began creating songs inspired by early childhood memories and the experience of coming of age in the modern world.
