Elaine Howley is a songwriter, vocalist and producer who merges a tapestry of experimental and analogue processes with a love for classic songwriting.

Immersed in both the music scene in her adopted home of Cork, and the DIY ethos of Ireland’s alternative music community, Elaine’s sound has grown out of collaborative practice, performance and exploration. She is a member of psychedelic rock group The Altered Hours, ambient trio Crevice and cinematic duo HowlBux and hosts the Cosmosis Radio Show on Dublin Digital Radio.

Howley released her first full length solo album ‘The Distance Between Heart and Mouth’ in 2022 through Touch Sensitive Records. The album saw a groundswell of support and was named as a future classic by Boomkat and selected as The Thin Air’s album of the year in 2022.

Supporting Elaine on the night will be Róisín Berkeley, a contemporary harpist and composer from Mayo. Róisín’s work explores different variations of traditional Irish music; drifting between classical and the avant-garde, and challenging conventional ways of playing.

Mynameisjohn will DJ before and in between acts.
