Niall Breslin and the Polaris Quartet

Musician, bestselling author, podcaster and one of Ireland’s foremost mental-health advocates, Niall “Bressie” Breslin has lived several lives: frontman of The Blizzards, coach on The Voice of Ireland, founder of A Lust for Life and a writer on the mind and how to mind it. For West x West he strips everything back and builds it up again, joined by the Polaris Quartet for an evening where songs are reimagined with strings and the poetry and talk between them matters as much as the music. Somewhere between a gig, a meditation and a confession — the Mullingar man at his most open.
