The Mary Whallopers, Squarehead, Murli & more among first announcements for Other Voices Ballina Music Trail

Other Voices Ballina is just around the corner (timewise that is, Ballina is a bit of a hike away from our office on Thomas Street).

Taking place on February 28th & 29th, the festival has already announced the likes of Elbow, Densie Chaila and Skinny Living as their headline acts.

Today, the first wave of acts have been announced for the festival’s music trail.

As always, the crew over at Other Voices have their finger very much on the pulse of emerging Irish music. Indie band Squarehead, TPM’s trad alter-egos The Mary Wallopers and Limerick MC Murli are among some of the stand out acts.
