The Clonakilty International Guitar Festival has unveiled a raft of new additions to their lineup – with the only Irish date of the year for The Redneck Manifesto catching the eye.
Mervyn Craig, Matthew Bolger, Richie Egan, Niall Byrne and Neil O’Connor tend to play on a very sporadic basis these days, so their appearance at the West Cork festival is a massive boost to what was already an impressive line-up. So too is the attraction of Adrian Crowley, who sits on the list of new additions alongside The Vespertine Quintet, Steve ‘Smiley’ Barnard, and prog-metallers Spook of the Thirteenth Lock.
They join a lineup which already boasted the likes of The Membranes and Wyvern Lingo in what looks set to be another can't-miss renewal of the festival – it runs September 15 - 18.
