PLAYING HIDE-AND-SEEK IN THE OLD GRAVEYARD W/ SIÓG - 15th October 2025

The older I get, the more my appreciation for where I’m from grows. This is a mix full of Irish releases and found sound, from friends and strangers across the island. Shout-out to my little brother’s friend on the trumpet! I’ve included Seamus Heaney reading a poem I heard him recite in Armagh’s Marketplace Theatre as a child that stuck with me for its use of audio-sensory nostalgia. There’s also a clip of a news report from when the British army left South Armagh in 2007, nine years after the peace process was signed when I was five.
