Grammy award-winning artist Aoife O’Donovan performs her new album Age Of Apathy with her band. Aoife operates in a thrilling musical world beyond genre. She has released 3 critically-acclaimed and boundary-blurring solo albums including her most recent record, boldly orchestrated and literarily crafted Age Of Apathy.

A savvy and generous collaborator, Aoife is one third of the group I’m With Her with bandmates Sara Watkins and Sarah Jarosz. The trio’s debut album See You Around was hailed as “willfully open-hearted” by NPR Music. I’m With Her earned an Americana Music Association Award in 2019 for Duo/Group of the Year, and a Grammy-award in 2020 for Best American Roots Song.

Singer and guitarist, Jack Badcock is a veteran performer, having toured extensively on four continents, predominantly as frontman and founding member of renowned world-folk band Dallahan. A previous finalist in the BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year Award, his 2021 EP The Driftwood Project was nominated for Original Work of the Year at the BBC Scots Music Awards.
