Chelsea Wolfe is on Irish shore for two shows, kicking off in Dublin’s Button Factory and then moving on to Belfast before hitting the UK and EU.
The Dublin show was a sell out and was evident with people crammed into every available space in the venue. All there were treated to a seventeen song set, which you can see below. Chelsea and the band put on a fantastic show as they played through said set on a very dimly lite stage as you would expect at any respectable Doom Metal / Goth Rock show.
Opening act on the night was Mary Jane Dunphe a poet and musician who tells stories–not through direct narrative but through embodied presence and performance and for me anyway had traits of Björk in her performance.
