Villagers @ Manhattan Inn
Irish indie folkies Villagers (the project led by Conor O’Brien) will be in NYC on June 11 at Bowery Ballroom (tickets go on sale today [4/12] at noon). But last night (4/11) Conor stopped in NYC by himself for a BrooklynVegan-presented solo show at the very intimate (as you can see from the picture above) Manhattan Inn in Greenpoint. Below the room’s skylight in the center of the room, he did a 9-song set with material from the new Villagers album, {Awayland}, and their 2010 debut, Becoming a Jackal. It really is a lovely place to see a show like this.
