Having recently released his fourth album, Nocturnes' The Soft Animal, on Bluestack Records during the summer, singer-songwriter Pearse McGloughlin sits down at Hard Working Class Heroes for a chat. And then sits down a couple weeks later for the rest of the chat. We talk Leonard Cohen (RIP), Pearse's musical journey, solo vs Idiot Songs (with Justin Grounds) and Nocturnes, Sligo, the state of the music industry following Fight Like Apes's farewell message, and much more.
