Last July, I was lucky to witness a gig in Mitchelstown cave, 200 feet below ground, in the company of Lisa Hannigan, James Vincent McMorrow and Caoimhin O’Raghallaigh. Myles O’ Reilly was also there and has made a short film documenting the special event. It was premiered at the Cork Opera House last week. Here’s the trailer.
