Marble City Sessions: Hanggai @ Kilkenny Arts Festival

Marble City Sessions: Hanggai @ Kilkenny Arts Festival

Saturday, 19 August 2017, 9.30pm

It’s several years since Hanggai took the Set by storm on an unforgettable night at the 2011 Festival, and we’ve been trying to lure them back ever since. For those who didn’t have the chance to experience them the first time around, Hanggai are a Mongolian collective whose blend of traditional Asian instruments and Western styles has thrilled audiences the world over since their debut in 2008. 

Since that first triumphant evening in the Set they have continued to broaden their sound, encompassing everything from thunderous rock interpretations of traditional Mongolian tunes to delicate folk melodies, enriched by extraordinary ‘throat singing’ duets that can only be truly experienced live. Don’t miss this chance to hear one of the most original acts in world music. Who knows when they’ll be back?
