The line-up has been announced for Sound Of Belfast 2015, a November 6-14 feast of live gigs, documentary screenings, exhibitions, industry talks and lots more.
Stiff Little Fingers, Bronagh Gallagher, The Lost Brothers, Ciaran Lavery, Jealous Of The Birds, Rory Nellis and Versechorusverse are among those doing their respective live things, with The Divine Comedy picking up the Oh Yeah Legend Award on November 14 as part of this year's NI Music Prize festivities in the Ulster Hall.
Neil Hannon, along with the Gary Moore estate, has also contributed some choice memorabilia to the Northern Ireland Music Exhibition - "From Ruby Murray to Snow Patrol via-punk rock and rave" - that can be viewed Monday through Saturday in the Oh Yeah Music Centre for a very reasonable free.
Grim up North? Never!
