New Irish music show Buille to air on TG4

A brand new, exciting music show is aiming to shine a light on some of the most talented and diverse musicians in Ireland today.

Buille is filmed in front of a live audience in the iconic Dolan’s in Limerick – one of the country’s best and buzziest music venues. Presenters Eve Belle and Cian McCarthy were on hand to showcase an eclectic mix of top-tier performances, featuring everything from hip-hop and indie to jazz, rock and R&B.

Stand-out performances included a storming set from Sorcha Richardson, hot off the back of a stellar turn at Electric Picnic, a spine-tingling rendition of ‘Glow of the Kerosene Light’ by hometown heroes Hermitage Green and sultry vocals from up-and-coming Cork R&B singer Minnie Marley.

Intimate chats with the presenters in the Upstairs @ Dolan’s space, and exclusive and bespoke acoustic performances give insights into our performers’ lives, loves and musical processes – and everything in between.

Episode one starts with Limerick legends Hermitage Green, R&B queen and BBC Introducing presenter Gemma Bradley, Irish language collective IMLÉ and new music by the up-and-coming Abe Soare. Episode two involves trad fusion band Moxie, Síomha, Emma Langford and rapper Ushmush.

In the third episode, Soda Blonde, hip-hop singer Minnie Marley, Banríon and Pearse McGloughlin take the reins before The Riptide Movement, Padraig Jack, T.A. Narrative and Eve Belle in episode four.

In episode five, Sorcha Richardson, Limerick rapper Hazey Haze, Clare Sands and the up-and-coming singer songwriter Amy McNamara take to the stage before the final episode of Susan O’Neill, Limerick artist Strange Boy, Megan Nic Ruairí and poet Stephen James Smith.

Buille will be broadcast on TG4 from Sunday, 16th April at 10:30pm for 6 weeks. All episodes can be streamed on the TG4 player from 16th April.
