The Coronas announce new music festival in Killruddery House, Bray

The Coronas have announced a brand new festival, No Where We’d Rather Be – set to take place in Killruddery House & Gardens, Bray on the August bank holiday weekend, July 31 and August 1.

Both nights will be headlined by The Coronas, alongside special guests Tom Walker, Hudson Taylor, LYRA, Gabrielle Aplin, Aimée, Somebody’s Child, Thanks Brother and True Tides.

In the eight months since The Coronas last release music, they’ve headlined their own travelling festival, performed a run of special shows in their hometown, and released a live album – all while recording their highly anticipated new album in London’s prestigious Eastcote studios. George Murphy, acclaimed engineer and producer (Ellie Goulding, The Specials, Mumford & Sons), has undertaken the main production duties on the album along with Rob Kirwan (Hozier, PJ Harvey) and Cormac Butler (Academic, All Tvvins).

They're set to continue their busy schedule right up to the album release in May: "Yeah, it’s been a crazy few months!" reveals singer Danny O'Reilly. "But it’s a new chapter for us and we’re so proud of this album, we can’t wait to release it."

‘Haunted’ is the first taste of this new music for the band’s legions of fans and they will be touring extensively both in Ireland and internationally in support of the upcoming album.

Tickets for Now Where We'd Rather Be are €55.85 incl. booking fee, and go on sale this Friday, January 31, at 9am from Ticketmaster.
