Artists, music fans, and industry insiders descend on New York City every fall for the annual CMJ Music Marathon. The festival is one of the world’s most important outlets for the discovery of new music, with more than 1,300 performers given a chance to shine in over 80 nightclubs and theaters spread across the city.

Spearheaded by Music From Ireland, an initiative run by First Music Contact in partnership with Culture Ireland, Irish artists and bands are a prominent part of six major music festivals – including CMJ Music Marathon each year. Past Irish showcases have featured Fionn Regan, The Lost Brothers, Julie Feeney, Villagers and many more.
