Limerick act Hey Rusty released their debut album Anorak on September 3. Reminiscent of Elliot Smith and influenced by the early efforts of Camera Obscura and Richard Hawley, it's a lush solo effort by Sean Ahern that's aided by a whole host of friends - it was produced by Bleeding Heart Pigeons’ Mícheál Keating and features contributions from Brendan McInerney (Bleeding Heart Pigeons), Dan Walsh (Fixity), David Tapley (Tandem Felix) and Pádraig O’Donoghue (Post Punk Podge & The Technohippies). Sean talks about moving to Belfast, friends in the Limerick scene, finding his voice with Hey Rusty, and some of the themes of Anorak.
Outro music: Hey Rusty - 'What a Shame'
