From the 14th to the 16th of June 2019 Other Voices returned to the culturally vibrant city of Belfast for the second time in the festival’s history. A selection of the spellbounding performances that took place at the Duncairn Centre for Culture and Arts will be featured in the RTÉ special.
The array of amazing artists that performed at the Duncairn Centre included: Snow Patrol, who made their triumphant return to Northern Ireland and wowed the audience with an acoustic set of beloved hits and new songs. Choice Prize-nominated, indie rock four piece The Academic, and alternative folk duo The Breath.
Roe, the multi-instrumentalist from Derry who has been blazing a trail for young female artists across Ireland, the UK and beyond, and Belfast-based experimental folk singer songwriter Joshua Burnside.
Borders, the musical project of Derry-based electronic musician and producer Ryan Vail and neo-classical, multi-instrumentalist and producer Elma Orkestra AKA Eoin O’Callaghan also performed a phenomenal set including a track with the Iconic Irish singer Moya Brennan.
Other Voices once again collaborated with the Duncairn Centre for Culture and Arts and 174 Trust to bring the dynamic event to Belfast with the support and investment of RTÉ, Belfast City Council, The Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht and The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
