This is practically a who’s who of home-grown, Irish musical talent.

CastleFest is set to take place in Kilkenny next week, and they are bringing together some of the best Irish acts for one night only.

The line-up includes:

The Blizzards, hot off the back of their Back To Basics tour all around Ireland, and a new Spotify listens peak thanks to their new single ‘Show Me The Science’, which arrived with one of the best music videos we’ve seen all year.

Little Hours, the duo consisting of 26 year old vocalist / guitarist Ryan McCloskey and 22 year old vocalist / keyboardist John Doherty, who you might remember getting into a Christmas-themed sing-song around this time last year with Kodaline and Gavin James.

Chasing Abbey, who we were very happy to have live on The JOE Show not too long ago.

In supporting slots, you can expect the immensely talented likes of Oh Bryan and Dali to get the crowds into the right mind-set for the night.

The festival is set to take place in The Hub at Cillin Hill, Kilkenny on Saturday 28 October.

Tickets cost €30 (including booking fee) and can be bought on tickets.ie here, and also in Centra and SuperValu stores.

More information on the festival can be found on the official CastleFest Facebook page here.
