Niall Connolly returns to Passim for a full band show celebrating the release of the NY based, Cork man’s 10th studio album. ‘There’s So Much More to See’ explores themes of division, love, death, grief, gratitude and resistance, all the while attempting to move past fruitless anger towards, what Nick Lowe so memorably called, Peace Love and Understanding. Spanning 11 songs in under 37 minutes, Connolly’s 10th studio album is a balm for troubled times. A master storyteller, he has consistently tapped into the emotional Zeitgeist with soul-punching honesty, dark humor, infectious melodies and mountains of touring. Twenty five years since his debut, this is his best work yet.
A songwriter’s songwriter, Connolly is hugely respected in the indie folk scene in New York. He is the founder of Big City Folk, a collective that has curated hundreds of events throughout the city and state.
“There’s So Much More To See deals with grief and anger, but the album is also balanced by dark humour and a sense of hope. Building on the positive response and critical acclaim of his last few records, the new album is easily Connolly’s best yet.” – Irish Examiner
“A masterclass in songwriting and performance” – John Platt, WFUV
