Clare Sands to play tonight's Hot Press Lockdown Sessions

To cap off the Bank Holiday weekend, we're thrilled to announce Clare Sands as our latest act on the Hot Press Lockdown Sessions – streaming live at 7.30pm tonight, May 4, on the Hot Press Instagram.

A unique force in Irish music, Clare Sands has built up an enviable reputation as an award-winning  musician and composer. The Cork-based artist became a sixth generation fiddler at the age of four, and has since crafted a sound that pulls from blues, jazz, folk and trad.

Following the release of her acclaimed debut album, Join Me At The Table, in 2016, as well as her five-track The Basement Sessions EP in 2019, Clare shared her latest single, 'Let The Sun Shine' last summer.

Throughout the Lockdown Sessions, our star-studded line-up will be taking over the Hot Press Instagram account (@hotpressmagazine), and live-streaming performances from their homes around the world directly to your phone.

We encourage everyone who enjoys Clare's performance tonight to support her through this difficult time for musicians by buying her music and merch here.

Watch Clare Sands on the Hot Press Lockdown Sessions – live from the Hot Press Instagram tonight, May 4, at 7.30pm.
