George Houston in session

Donegal alt-folk songwriter George Houston live in session.

Donegal alt-folk songwriter George Houston live in session. Described as an “alt-folk visionary”, George Houston counts music icon Paul Weller among his ever-growing devoted fan base. In fact, he recorded his brand-new album “TODC (The Original Death Card)” at Weller’s studio following a tour with the legendary musician across North America and Ireland. His songs feel fresh but they also nod to other eras and they are unapologetic, playful, defiant, poetic and tender. Before his appearance on Later with Jools Holland on the 8th of June, George plays live in session and talks to Stephen about his forthcoming new album. There will also be incredible music from David Bowie, Idlewild, Dog Race, St Vincent, BK Pepper and Sleater Kinney.
