Conor O'Brien of Villagers: 'I would prefer to exist before the internet'
Conor O'Brien of Villagers.
Conor O’Brien is gearing up to get back into album mode as his band Villagers release their fifth album in August. Fever Dreams is the result of about four band sessions that ended up being a race against time.
“The very last day of recording was the first day of the first lockdown,” O’Brien says with relief. “It just was perfect timing. In terms of my own little creative world, it was great being able to lock down with all these files of really great musicians making crazy sounds and just sorting through them all. That took up probably 80% of my lockdown life.”
