Knockanstockan is this weekend and as they told me in the Irish Times, the festival is taking a break in 2017.
That means that this year’s event, with three days and special surprise guests will be even more cherished by the people in attendance.
To that end, here is some homework, a preparatory playlist of 75 Knockanstockan acts including Ciaran Lavery, Rosa Nutty, Overhead, The Albatross, Elephant, The Hot Sprockets, Eskies, Squarehead, Feather, Booka Brass, Toby Kaar, Mongoose, Fangclub and more.
