The project 'Something Familiar' came about as a result of Éadaoin Breathnach's wish to carry on her work after the success of Parallel Shed's film project 'Sirra' of which she was the musical director.
The artistic vision that fueled this new venture suggested a tour of the West of Ireland in order to musically develop some basic ideas and skills. Upon return to the Deiseland, the group of musicians formed, each of them well known to each other from Tuesday night's musical adventures in Jordan's Bar.
A traditional Irish story was chosen as a base point for our writer, Stephen Walsh. From this, 'Something Familiar' came about. It was brought to the middle room of William St. for improvisation and discussion.
