Other Voices - RTE Highlights Broadcast 30th November 2019

A video that we hardcore fans suspected existed but couldn't confirm...until now that is. RTE finally decided to release some footage of 3 Editors playing a very intimate, special gig in a church as part of the Other Voices event of November 2019. My first thought when I saw the cliffs and the remote farmhouse at the beginning of the clip was Crear, which was the scene of the band's month long retreat to record the In Dream sessions during October 2014. This, however, is footage of Dingle in County Kerry.
There's four songs and an interview with Tom and Justin conducted by Huw Stephens. There's still something perversely satisfying about seeing Tom singing "If there really was a god here..." from Papillon in a church. You would suspect that there was a persistent warning bell alarming in the minds of Justin and Elliott, as they waited for a bolt of lightning to take the singer out for his blasphemous proclamations. For some reason, it never happened. Enjoy the music ;)
