The final episode of a rather outstanding season of Other Voices showcases highlights from the OV stage at last year's Stradbally bash, featuring a series of truly memorable performances. 

Over the weekend, Heathers showcased new songs alongside festival favourites Le Galaxie. Elsewhere, American psych-pop quintet Dr. Dog delivered a belting set, while baritone crooner Karl Blau brought his intimate Americana to the Other Voices stage. Audiences were also introduced to new names in Irish hip-hop via the Word Up Collective, while Holly Macve and My Sweet Beloved treated the packed house to sets which were dark and dreamy in equal measure.
