Whelan's, Thursday 24th November

Aoife Nessa Frances plays Whelan's main venue on Thursday 24th November 2022.

Aoife has spent time in the west of Ireland over the last couple of years working on new music. Her 2020 debut album ‘Land of No Junction’ won praise from Uncut, The Quietus, MOJO, Aquarium Drunkard and Pitchfork, with the latter describing Aoife’s voice as “…a headlight in fog. Her debut abounds with deceptively serene serenades and surprising lyrical shifts.”

“Land of No Junction is hugely compelling… an album that goes its own way. You’re strongly advised to follow the path it’s beaten.” The Line of Best Fit

“The Irish songwriter’s voice shines like a headlight in fog. Her debut abounds with deceptively serene serenades and surprising lyrical shifts.” Pitchfork

“Turn on, tune in, drop off: dreamy debut from enigmatic Irish auteur…. questing for the freedom to explore her own private Narnia in peace. A place of quiet certainty – it’s a compelling landscape to ponder in a treacherous age.” Uncut ‘Album of the Month’
