Festival: Open Ear

Strange sounds bound for Sherkin…

It’s festival announcement season in Cork with Quarter Block Party having just hauled us screaming and dancing from hibernation and with word of CFFF starting to filter to the film-loving folks, Cork’s (relatively) newest electonica jamboree announces line-up, dates and ticket links. Open Ear first invited a contingent to Sherkin Island last June and they’re back in 2017 with Naive Ted, Cáit, Eomac and more. Also watch out for a Penske Recordings double bill with the Cork-based independent label serving up both Fixity and Magic Pockets for the weekend. Early Bird weekend tickets are on sale now at a price of €75 rising to a still reasonable €115 as time ticks closer.
