Hard Rain Ensemble presents: Death of Naturalist
Hard Rain with special guests Malachy Frame and Sarah Richmond This programme is a reflection on the relationship between human beings and nature, drawing on poetry and text. It challenges the idea that humanity has constructed itself as separate from, and superior to, nature. This also considers parallels within our society in how throughout history, patriarchal culture has similarly constructed women as subordinate and acquiescent. Birding By Ear by Perry Goldstein was developed out of a long-standing collaboration with writer Richard Powers. His six bespoke bird-themed poems serve as a subtle thematic precursor to his ecological novel The Overstory. They explore specific birds, examining what human beings project onto nature out of a deep-seated loneliness and desire to connect. Áine Mallon's Songs for Revered Scorned Women (world premiere performance) was written in collaboration with Emily DeDakis. In this song cycle each movement uniquely adopts the perspective of a woman drawn from history, mythology, or religion, who has served as the archetype for misogynistic treatment or the establishment of patriarchal standards. Greg Caffrey composed his setting of Seamus Heaney's acclaimed poetry collection Death of a Naturalist in 2020 with this version for Hard Rain written in 2022 while Relativity and Revelation by Sarah Lianne Lewis sets poems by American poet J.L. Williams alongside translated traditional Japanese tanka - haiku. The juxtaposition of the stillness and serenity of the heron against the innate complexities of our human interactions, becomes a reflection on our fragile existence in the natural world.

Ocean Colour Scene
Indie-rock legends Ocean Colour Scene have announced their tour for 2026, celebrating the 30th anniversary of their classic album Moseley Shoals coming to Ulster Hall on 14 & 15 November 2026! Released in April 1996, at the height of the Britpop era, Moseley Shoals was Ocean Colour Scene’s second album and immediately became a huge success. Reaching number 2 on the UK Albums Chart, Moseley Shoals featured the massive hit singles ‘The Riverboat Song’, ‘You’ve Got It Bad’, ‘The Day We Caught The Train’ and ‘The Circle’ and was certified as triple-platinum after spending an incredible 92 weeks on the chart. In August that year, Oasis invited Ocean Colour Scene to be their special guests at one of their historic concerts held at Knebworth. Performing a blistering set in front 125,000 people, Ocean Colour Scene firmly cemented their status as one of Britain’s biggest bands. For the Moseley Shoals 30th anniversary tour, in addition to playing all the highlights from Moseley Shoals, Ocean Colour Scene will play a career-spanning set to include all their other hits and fan favourites, such as ‘Hundred Mile High City’, ‘Travellers Tune’, ‘Better Day and ‘Profit In Peace’, amongst many others. Ocean Colour Scene’s lead singer Simon Fowler said, “It’s hard to believe that Moseley Shoals turns 30 in 2026. We owe so much to that album, so it’s exciting to be able to look forward this very special anniversary and celebrate with our amazing fans at some of the UK’s most prestigious venues.” Formed in Birmingham in 1989, Ocean Colour Scene began crafting songs in the spirit of the soul, folk and blues greats who inspired them, with words and melodies that would soon chime with the hearts and minds of the group’s fiercely loyal fanbase. After a few years honing their sound, Ocean Colour Scene became a household name with the release of Moseley Shoals, which was quickly followed by the Top 10 albums Marchin’ Already (1997), One From The Modern (1999) and Mechanical Drift (2001). Enjoying an incredible run of seventeen Top 40 singles - which included nine successive Top 20 singles – Ocean Colour Scene are not only one of the UK’s most successful groups, they are also renowned as one of the country’s very best live bands.

VANTA - Where Sound & Light Unfold - Phase 2
Following the success of its debut last year, VANTA returns as part of this year’s Sound of Belfast Festival, bringing with it a new phase of the immersive audio-visual experience from Timmy Stewart & The Fully Automatic Model. Described as a collaborative exploration where sound and light meet, VANTA moves beyond the traditional boundaries of a live music event, creating an environment where electronic music, visual art, lighting and performance come together as an evolving experience. The second phase of VANTA builds on the foundations established at last year’s event, taking the project into new territory and continuing its exploration of the relationship between sound, light, space & audience. Across the night, the Oh Yeah Music Centre becomes the setting for an experience designed to unfold around the audience, combining carefully constructed electronic soundscapes with an evolving visual & lighting environment. For Timmy Stewart & The Fully Automatic Model, the return of VANTA represents the next step in an ongoing creative experiment, that embraces technology, improvisation and atmosphere while remaining rooted in Belfast's vibrant independent music art&s community.
