The fabulous Boy M5 who will be in action at the Ghostlight Sessions
The Ghostlight Sessions returns to the Balor Arts Centre stage this Thursday, September 7 promising audiences another three great new musical acts to discover.
Headlining September's Ghostlight Sessions are Boy M5 – an indie pop trio formed in April 2022 that is making big waves on the local music scene. They’ve enjoyed sold-out shows at Derry’s Nerve Centre and a headline performance at Stendhal Festival to go along with widespread acclaim for singles Mountains, Roar By The Shore and Bob. Theirs is a blend of high-energy performance and heartfelt storytelling that is a surefire recipe for success.
Also appearing are singer/songwriter Kate Dineen and Derry-based alt-folk band Little Kings. Kate’s blend of traditional folk and modern alternative is the result of a lifetime immersed in music – from starting with the tin whistle at the tender age of five before progressing to piano, guitar and vocals. A multi-faceted talent, her onstage delivery demonstrates a quiet power that is both deft and uncompromising.
Kate Dineen
Little Kings are a Derry-based alt-folk band led by Hong Kong-born and raised Ryan Harling. Their debut EP was a colourful, sonically adventurous tapestry that featured an impressive 17 musicians. Their Ghostlight appearance sees Ryan joined by Aoife Mullan and Leah Bell. As a trio, you’ll find strands of Bon Iver, Father John Misty and The Waterboys. Their new single Hands Were The Sun was released on August 12 and a new EP – made possible through support secured from Help Musicians ‘Record and Release’ fund – is due out on October 7.
Little Kings
The Ghostlight Sessions featuring Boy M5, Kate Dineen and Little Kings takes place this Thursday, September 7th at 8pm in The Balor, Ballybofey. Tickets are €15 and available from The Balor Box Office at (074) 9131840 or online at www.balorartscentre.com
