In March of this year, writer and performer Peter Murphy (aka Cursed Murphy),
composer/violinist Colm Mac Con Iomaire, and Cillian and Lorcan Byrne from @basciville , convened in the @nationaloperahouse for five days to record an album entitled Ghost Voltage. Weaving elements of memoir, folklore, sci-fi and the supernatural, the text of the piece is a prose-poem requiem for the departed, divided into six parts, illustrated by artist @mironamara , documented in film and photographs by @caolanbarron .
Ghost Voltage will be released this autumn; Colm and Basciville’s musical score draws on traditional, classical, folk and electronic music to stunning effect. This Wexford Arts Centre performance on Saturday Oct 4th is a rare chance to see the album performed live in tandem with Mirona’s images: it promises to be a singular and special event.
Ghost Voltage was made possible by a Literature Project Award from the @artscouncilireland.
