As hinted at in a previous post, Robin has news about Electric Picnic 2019, and that is (drumroll..!) that he was asked to curate the acts for a brand new stage called Spike Island – A first glimpse of what the stage looks like taken from this Irish Times article is above this post.
Robin of course will be playing himself – a solo set on Saturday 12.45 and also finishing the picnic as the last act on Spike Island on Sunday at 23.30 with a full band as: Band of Moonlight Love. For that performance Robin will be joined by Mick Morris on bass and mandolin, Kian Loughnane on fiddle, Clare Faherty on concertina and Dave Keegan on drums.
As for the rest of the acts he’s chosen: In Robin’s own words:
