Finally, something worth doing on culture night! I know, its quite surprising, as the rest of it a nonsense really. State and IMRO are putting together a night for interview and live performance with Thomas Walsh of Pugwash/ Duckworth Lewis, James Vincent McMorrow, Fight Like Apes and a few others. It sounds pretty good, but I think I’m going to Damien Jurado regardless. For those interested, you have to apply for tickets at membership@imro.ie

Here’s James Vincent McMorrow, who is a much under rated singer/ songwriter, and introduced by the wonderful John Kelly.
