Description

Debut album from one of the most exciting singer-songwriters to emerge this decade.

Villagers is the brainchild of Conor J. OBrien. Becoming A Jackal introduces us to Villagers vivid narratives, gripping poetry and melodic depth. Conor J. OBriens clear and distinctive voice weaves a remarkable spell, delivering an album of rare, alarming beauty. From restrained to unleashed, from a whisper to a literal howl, Becoming A Jackal mutates, intrigues and beguiles in equal measure.

The campaign got off to an amazing start with a mesmerising Later performance when Conor blew the other more seasoned performers off the stage with quietly intense and powerful renditions of Becoming A Jackal and The Meaning Of The Ritual.

After support slots with Neil Young, Tracy Chapman, Cass McCombs and Wild Beasts, Villagers will be heading out on a series of UK dates in April and May.
