The Era are pushing the boundaries of modern rock/pop music by using their USP; an Electric Harp played through a selection of amplifiers and effects pedals to create a thick wall of atmospheric distortion. This, coupled with jagged guitar riffs and seductive vocals makes for a dark, heady sound of their own devising. They play Oran Mor on Friday and Cab Vol on Saturday.

The Great Pleasure have only released 1 song so far but their debut show at Oran Mor for Celtic Connections was a huge success. They’re performing special stripped back shows for the WKNDR at Cab Vol on Friday and Oran Mor on Saturday!
