Ireland's Edge explores how Ireland can position itself to thrive in the decades ahead.

Operating as a distinct ideas stream within the Other Voices musical caravan, we come from an edge that is simultaneously physical, sectorial, rural and metaphorical. The periphery has many aspects: geography, culture, language, economy, education, access. The interplay of periphery and centre creates a distinct perspective. From the edge you can experiment, you can play, you can innovate, you can disrupt.

Other Voices started as a one-off music event in a small church in the west of Ireland and over the last 15 years has grown.

Other voices is now an established fixture in the musical calendar - a 'must attend' event for performers and audiences alike.
