Interference are the legendary Irish band based around singer-songwriter Fergus O’Farrell. Their sound has influenced a generation of Irish musicians. O’Farrell began his musical journey while still in school forming the band with James O’Leary and teaming up with Malcolm MacClancy to write songs. To this day the musical collective he called interference continue to work and perform together, and when they do play live it is considered an event not to be missed.
