Six of the acts playing the final ever Glasgowbury festival this weekend have teamed up for three unique collaborations as part of the Nerve Centre’s Resonate project.
With the aim of getting together and writing a new song (the more musically diverse, the better), North Coast three-piece Axis Of and Belfast quartet More Than Conquerors, Paddy Nash and Gemma Bradley and The Greased Palm and Dublin’s Orchid Collective wrote and recorded their songs at Derry’s Blast Furnace recording studio.
Taking place throughout 2013, Resonate is an ambitious recording initiative which hopes to capture the musical talent, energy and spirit of Derry during its tenure as City of Culture by providing a range of recording opportunities, such as locally based professional facilities and roving, mobile ‘pop-up’ recording studios.
Check out the three – excellent – tracks and photos from the sessions below. Who knows? Festival-goers might just hear one or two of thee collaborations performed live up the mountain!
Small but MASSIVE!
