'Breaking Out' documentary to pay homage to Interference singer Fergus O'Farrell
Interference vocalist Fergus O'Farrell
One of the great stories of the Irish independent music community over the years is that of Interference, a West Cork-based outfit led by the late Fergus O'Farrell, a charismatic frontman whose battle with muscular dystrophy drove his creativity, and inspired the band's groundswell of support from community and industry alike.
Filmed over ten years, and produced following his passing in 2016, at the age of 48, , directed by Michael McCormack, charts the life story, diagnosis, artistic processes and musical body of work of O'Farrell, as well as cementing his legacy through the words and stories of friends, bandmates and contemporaries.
