Lisa O'Neill + Poor Creature
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]Hear the Irish singer-songwriter’s haunting vocals and melodies in a concert featuring some of her most powerful music, and that of Irish band Poor Creature.
A raconteur in the truest sense of the word, O’Neill is a five-time BBC Folk Award nominee.
Her album Heard a Long Gone Song was named The Guardian’s 2019 Folk Album of the Year.
Two of her songs feature in Peaky Blinders – ‘Blackbird’, her own composition, and an adaptation of Bob Dylan’s ‘All the Tired Horses’, which soundtracked the final scene of the epic TV drama.
Her most recent single, ‘Homeless in the Thousands (Dublin in the Digital Age)’, is a song in response to the growing issue of homelessness in Dublin and features vocals from Libertines’ Peter Doherty.
Poor Creature are a trio composed of Ruth Clinton, Cormac MacDiarmada and John Dermody. All three are members of other bands (Landless and Lankum respectively) who have built a large following on re-interpreting songs from the past. Their music is unique in the context of contemporary Irish folk, moving between gauzy, underwater sounds, using instruments such as a vintage organ, to the influence of American folk/bluegrass acts like Doc Watson and the Louvin Brothers.
Subterranean is a new one-day festival at the Southbank Centre, programmed by Broadside Hacks, Bird on the Wire, Rough Trade Records and Skinty Records, championing the subterranean music and traditions of today.
