Saturday afternoon featured The Ryan & Podge Show. An interview series across the weekend, featuring Ryan Carrick and Podge Henry. It was the perfect way to cure the previous nights hangover. They interviewed DJ and cook Marcus O’Laoire and comedians Michael Fry and Fiona Frawley. The three shared their festival tips and tricks and who they would have headline their ideal festival. A welcome respite and change of pace to the rest of the weekend.
Later on that day the sun came out and Lemoncello took the stage. Their music, deeply rooted in Irish traditions, was both nostalgic and fresh. Their harmonies and beautiful lyrics created an intimate gig that resonated with festival-goers.
