Very sad to hear about the passing of Cathal Coughlan, We had the pleasure of working with Cathal on an album along with Luke Haines and Andrew Mueller, “The North Sea Scrolls” a truly bonkers, eccentric, genius collaboration! Cathal was always great to see, super friendly, a gentleman. In my mind he was touched with genius, Microdisney’s “The Clock Comes Down The Stairs” was a masterpiece, an album everyone should own! RIP Cathal, Love to his family and friends. ❤️

See Conchúr White showcasing at this year’s Great Escape Festival in Brighton!
