Peco
From Monasterevin. Co. Kildare, Peco McLoughlin graduated from folk/rock hopefuls Pedestrienne, and is currently putting the finishing touches to his debut EP “Hidden Tracks”.
Having had a break from performing while writing and recording his new EP, the return of Peco is eagerly awaited. One past reviewer has compared Peco to “Bob Dylan with a new set of lungs”.

Alice Jago
Dublin born and based singer/songwriter Alice Jago has been a stalwart of the Dublin acoustic scene for the past three years and has supported a veritable who’s who of Irish artists including The Frames, The Walls, The Four of Us, Damien Rice and Paddy Casey and international artists such as Roger McGuinn (The Byrds) and Miles Hunt (The Wonderstuff).
With eclectic influences, heartfelt songs and a unique voice, Alice is currently working on her debut album.

Clive Barnes www.clivebarnes.com
When a legend like David Crosby (CSNY) says that he is “the closest thing to an acoustic roller coaster ride I’ve ever seen”, Clive Barnes is surely getting noticed in the right places.
From Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford and now based in Cork City, Clive Barnes plays lapslide and regular acoustic guitar and has wowed the critics with three albums under his belt to date.
Clive’s 2001 “Welcome to Farewell” album won Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s "Homegrown Album of the year 2002" in the USA which resulted in a sold-out tour there late last year.
