ahead of performing at Ireland Music Week 2024
The Awning, the ethereal folk duo comprising multi-instrumentalists and singer-songwriters Darragh Purcell and Evan Flaherty, are set to release their second single, "Empty Plateau," on September 20th, just ahead of their performance at Ireland Music Week 2024, Oct 1st-4th.
Following the success of their debut single "July," this new track continues to showcase their unique blend of lush production, traditional elements, and otherworldly harmonies reminiscent of Bon Iver and Fleet Foxes.
The duo had an impressive 2023, performing at high-profile events such as Whelan's Ones to Watch, Indiependence Festival Cork, and Masters of Tradition in Bantry, where they appeared alongside long-time influence Sam Amidon.
About "Empty Plateau" the band say.."Empty Plateau" is a poignant exploration of the deep complexities within a fractured family relationship. The song captures the yearning for a connection that was never fully realized, weighed down by trust issues and painful betrayals. It conveys the heartbreak of witnessing a loved one's self-destructive behavior and the relentless cycle of hope and despair that follows, leaving a lasting impact on those who care the most."
Don't miss the chance to experience The Awning's captivating live performance, where their
enchanting sound truly comes to life. Catch them as a showcasing act at Ireland Music
Week 2024. This is an opportunity to witness one of the most exciting new acts in the Irish music scene.
