Set in the grounds of Shankill Castle, Paulstown, Co.Kilkenny. Light Colour Sound is a new festival with a line up full of new and established artists of music and spoken word taking to the stages beside one another on 4 & 5 July 2014.
Despite some cancellations on the music bill due to illness and other unforeseen circumstances, the line up is still holding its own with acts like And So I Watch You From Afar, Cathy Davey, Jerry Fish and many more.
Getting there
