Lynched

Imagine the Pogues crossed with a Celtic Tiger-comedown version of the Dubliners and you’re half-way there.

Last year’s St George’s debut by Lynched is already the stuff of legend: an uproarious, gloriously entertaining evening of airs, ballads, jigs, reels and erudite introductions that moved the blissed-out audience from one emotional extreme to another, from laughter to tears and back again.

Since then, the quartet of Ian and Darrargh Lynch, Cormac Mac Diarmada and Radie Peat, has become the hottest act in folk. Catch them in a human-sized hall while you still can.
