New Domino signings VILLAGERS have announced the release of their stunning debut single "Becoming A Jackal" to be released on 26th April.
VILLAGERS is the brainchild of Conor J. O'Brien, who has already toured Ireland twice, played festivals at home and abroad, and opened for the likes of NEIL YOUNG, WILD BEASTS and CASS MCCOMBS.
"Becoming A Jackal" is a heart-wrenching, melodic piece full of lyrical finesse; it’s the sort of song you want to play on repeat until every last note is engrained in your mind. "Becoming A Jackal" is a little taster of what's to come from Conor J. O'Brien and his esteemed colleagues' forthcoming debut LP, details of which are to be announced shortly.
"Becoming A Jackal" will be released on limited edition 7" (RUG362), b/w with the track "Twenty-Seven Strangers".
