#115 Cian Ó Cíobháin: 25 years of underground music on Irish public radio

D:U:LIVE is coming in June! My first live set since 2013.... London / Bristol / Manchester - all tickets: scubaoficial.io/live Radio is not something we've covered massively on the podcast to date but this week's guest is often (and somewhat lazily) referred to as the Irish John Peel, so this is a step towards rectifying that. Cian Ó Cíobháin has been curating his 5-nights-a-week show An Taobh Tuathail on the Irish state broadcaster RTE RnaG for 25 years. That longevity is an achievement in itself, but doing a great music show for that long is a very rare thing indeed. Originally from Gaeltacht in Co Kerry, he's been based in Galway since 1993, and has been a big part of the music scene ever since as a DJ and club promoter, bringing acts like Erol Alkan , Andrew Weatherall , and Justice to the city. Cian is a real legend of underground music in Ireland and it's great to have him on the show! If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!
